91 weapons among stolen items seized from Fairview property

91 firearms were among hundreds of allegedly stolen items found and seized from a property in Fairview earlier this month.

RCMP in Fairview say they received information from the public suggesting they would be able to find multiple firearms on the property, and after obtaining a warrant, a search revealed 91 firearms, most with handmade price tags and ready to be resold, as well a large quantity of ammo.

Police say while they were on the property conducting the search for the alleged stolen weapons, they noted a large number of other potential stolen items in the vicinity. Two days later, another search warrant was executed on the property, and ended up seizing numerous vehicles, trailers, atvs and other items, including generators, a motorcycle and a welding skid.

As the investigation continues, police are looking to link the firearms and stolen goods to the places and people they were stolen from. Anyone with information regarding this incident is asked to please contact the Fairview RCMP at 780-835-4031, or your local police.
