Police in Southern Alberta have arrested two people who they say stole guns from a hardware store in Fort Macleod.
Fort Macleod RCMP began investigating on Sept. 27 after receiving a report of a break-and-enter at Alberta Hardware in the town 50 kilometres west of Lethbridge.
Lethbridge Police Service’s property crimes unit, Raymond RCMP, Alberta Law Enforcement Response Team (ALERT) and police dogs were recruited to help with the investigation.
More than two months after the break and enter, the Southern Alberta crime reduction unit (CRU) searched residences in Stirling and Lethbridge.
