Rosthern RCMP are asking the public to keep an eye out for a vehicle that was involved in two separate incidents, including a shooting in the RM of Duck Lake.

The first incident occurred around 3 p.m. Sunday on the Beardy’s Okemasis First Nation after police received a call regarding a suspicious vehicle on the reserve.

The vehicle is being described as a white truck with a black tailgate with three total occupants inside, two males and one female. The female was reported to have pink hair while the two males had their faces covered with bandanas.

The second incident occurred about an hour later in the RM of Duck Lake when a weapons complaint was made to RCMP. The victim approached a white Ford 3/4 ton truck with the three same suspects inside.

The suspects then shot at the victim with a type of long gun as they drove away. The vehicle was last seen heading southbound and the plate of the truck is unknown.

Police believe that the truck was involved in both incidents.

If spotted, police are asking people not to approach the vehicle as the suspects are considered dangerous. Anyone with information is being asked to contact RCMP or Crime Stoppers.
