RCMP in Alberta say a complaint regarding a stolen vehicle led them to a rural property in Vulcan County.
Police initially visited the property on April 7. Police said a man was arrested after attempting to flee the property in a stolen vehicle. RCMP said an officer suffered a minor injury during the arrest.
Two days later, RCMP executed a search warrant at the property and located a dozen pickup trucks, a travel trailer, two utility trailers and two dirt bikes. Police believe all of the items were stolen from Calgary and the surrounding areas, and the property was being used as a chop shop.
RCMP recover over a dozen stolen trucks and other items from a southern Alberta property.
