A pair of daring thieves pulled an unusual early morning heist on Thursday in Maidstone.

RCMP say the theft occurred at roughly 2 a.m., April 20 when two men broke into the Tekron Mechanical compound by cutting the lock on the gate and attached a 2006 Trailtech trailer to their white Ford U-haul truck. The suspects then loaded a 2013 Bobcat T750 Track machine valued at $81,640 onto the trailer. 

The suspects were captured on surveillance video. One suspect was wearing dark clothing and a dark hat and stood roughly 5’8”. Both individuals had their faces covered.

If anyone has any information on this crime they are asked to contact the Maidstone RCMP or Crime Stoppers.
