On April 12, 2026, at 3:05 pm, The Pas RCMP received a report of a robbery that had occurred the previous day.
Officers immediately attended to meet with the victim to obtain information as to what had taken place.
The victim, a 55-year-old female from The Pas, reported to police she was with two other women, a 32-year-old from The Pas and a 24-year-old from Pukatawagan, on April 11 and that they made plans to travel to Winnipeg.
The victim later advised the two women that she had a family emergency and was not able to make the trip. The two women responded later that day by striking her in the face with bear mace and robbing her of the cash in her possession.
The victim was later taken to an ATM machine where she was forced to withdraw a sum of money and turn it over to the two women. They then returned to a residence in The Pas, where the victim is believed to have been drugged, and had fallen asleep. When she awoke, the suspects had left and she noted her car keys, wallet and cellphone were missing. When she checked outside, her vehicle was gone.
The investigation has uncovered that the stolen vehicle had been located and stopped in Winnipeg on April 13 with the two female suspects in possession of it. They were both arrested.
The 32-year-old was later released from police custody for a court appearance scheduled for June 23 in The Pas where she will face charges of Robbery, Forcible confinement, Theft of a vehicle over $5000 and Possess prohibited weapon.
Charges for the second suspect, the 24-year-old, are pending.
The Pas RCMP continue to investigate.
