She says police want to speak to anyone who saw a grey 2003 GMC Sierra 4 X 4 pickup truck travelling on Richibucto-area roads on Saturday, Feb. 24, between noon and 10 p.m.
The truck has a camouflaged coloured wind deflector on the hood, camouflaged window deflectors over the driver and passenger side windows, a “Browning” decal over the front windshield, several camouflaged decals on the tailgate and there are also decals on the rear window.
It’s believed the truck was in and around the Richibucto area, primarily in the communities of Saint-Ignace, Saint-Charles and Saint-Louis-de-Kent.
