Gravelbourg RCMP continue to investigate.

Officers remind residents to take the following precautions to prevent being a victim of break-in and theft:

• Lock and secure your home, businesses, outbuildings, and slip tanks.
• Avoid leaving valuables in vehicles – even spare change can make it a possible target. It’s not enough to put your vehicle keys, or anything valuable, in a cup holder or behind a visor; you must remove them from your vehicle and lock the doors.
• Always remember to remove your garage door opener from your vehicle – if it is stolen, it can mean someone has access to everything inside your garage and your home if it is attached.
• Keep your property well-lit. Install motion-sensor security lights or timer lights that turn on at sundown to discourage trespassers.
• Consider installing a monitored security or alarm system.

Anyone with information about these incidents, or who recognizes the males in the photos, is asked to call Gravelbourg RCMP by dialling 310-RCMP. Information can also be submitted anonymously by contacting Saskatchewan Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477) or www.saskcrimestoppers.com.
