A Maskwacis man is facing numerous charges stemming from a stolen vehicle recovery.
On July 22, 2024, Wetaskiwin RCMP located a Ford F150 reported stolen from Edmonton.
While officers were covertly following the vehicle and attempting to coordinate its safe recovery, they observed a Wetaskiwin County Peace Officers attempt to conduct a traffic stop with the stolen truck.
The vehicle then fled at a high rate of speed. With the assistance of Camrose City Police, Leduc RCMP, and Maskwacis RCMP, the vehicle was found abandoned. A short time later, the suspect was located.
Wetaskiwin RCMP have charged Maskwacis resident Isaiah Okeynan (28), with:
- Possession of Property Obtained by Crime Over $5,000
- Flight from Police
- Dangerous Operation of motor vehicle
- Drive while unauthorized
Okeynan was taken before a justice of the peace and remanded into custody with his next court date currently set for Jan. 24, 2025, at the Alberta Court of Justice in Wetaskiwin.
