RCMP seek suspects after attempted robbery in yard north of Lloydminster

RCMP in Maidstone are seeking three suspects who tried to rob a homeowner before fleeing in a truck on Saturday.

Police say just before 5 p.m., three men drove into a homeowner's yard in Maidstone, a community about 50 kilometres south east of Lloydminster.

When the men became aware of the homeowner, they fired a gun in their direction before fleeing the property. As they were trying to leave, their truck hit one of the homeowner's vehicles, significantly damaging the truck's front passenger side. There were no reported injuries in the incident.

Police describe the truck as a light silver or grey Ford F150, possibly from 2010, with factory rims. They do not know where the men went after they left.

RCMP advise people not approach the vehicle, as the suspects are considered armed and dangerous.

Police would like anyone with information about the whereabouts of the three men to contact Maidstone RCMP by phoning 310-RCMP. Information can also be submitted anonymously by contacting Saskatchewan Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477) or at saskcrimestoppers.com.
