Police say the machines were left there sometime between 4 p.m. Friday and 5 p.m. Saturday. They were found down an embankment on a remote property, according to the RCMP.

“Police had to request a tow truck to retrieve the machines and bring them to the detachment to have them examined by Forensic Identification Technicians,” the RCMP said in a news release Monday.

Anyone who may have seen the machines being transported to School Road is asked to contact Antigonish District RCMP or Crime Stoppers.
