SASKATCHEWAN — The Saskatchewan RCMP has released its monthly list of wanted individuals for May, highlighting suspects who they say pose a potential threat to community safety.
Police say they are people with active warrants who were last known to be living in Saskatchewan.
“They have been selected to appear on this list based on a review of their current criminal charges and the potential harm they present to communities in Saskatchewan,” said RCMP in a media release.
RCMP said that the list isn’t a complete list of all wanted persons inn the province. Those appearing on this list are determined by a data-driven scoring system using the Crime Severity Index, a Statistics Canada measurement that looks at both the number and the relative severity of crimes. Factors such as age, gender, race, ethnicity, socio-economic status, religion, sexuality or disability of an offender are not considered in the scoring process.
They say the intent of releasing this list is to encourage tips and information from the public to support Saskatchewan RCMP investigations and to lead to the arrest of these individuals.
“Do not attempt to contact, approach or apprehend any wanted persons on your own,” said the RCMP.
If you recognize any of these individuals and have information regarding their whereabouts, activities or associations, call 310-RCMP (310-7257) or 911 in an emergency.
