Kindersley RCMP suspicious package

On Monday, June 29, Kindersley RCMP were called to an apartment on West Road in Kindersley to assist the Sherriff’s Department with an eviction. The 67 year old male tenant from Kindersley was escorted to the hospital by crisis workers for treatment of a pre-existing condition.

RCMP members located firearms and ammunition and observed a suspicious object. This led to the Explosive Disposal Unit being called to attend and immediate evacuation of the building. Once the Explosives Disposal Unit has completed a thorough search of the premises, the tenants will be allowed to return.

The RCMP thanks the community for respecting the request to avoid the area for public safety reasons. At this time the investigation is on going and no charges have been laid.
