On June 9, Chief Little Pine School reported an incident of vandalism involving graffiti. It was determined that individuals had gained unauthorized access to one of the school’s portable classrooms after hours, where they took art supplies. These materials were then used to create artwork on the school walls and surrounding areas. While the suspects think they were creative, this will not count toward extra credit. The investigation remains ongoing.

The vehicle’s locks had been cut and several tools were taken from inside. The suspect vehicle is described as a white Ford Super Duty Dually truck bearing Alberta license plates. This matter remains under active investigation.
On June 15, officers responded to a report of a stolen Jeep Trail Hawk, license plate 128NTF. The complainant had offered a ride to three individuals.
