A Lloydminster duo face charges relating to a Kitscoty RCMP stolen vehicle investigation.
On Aug. 19, Kitscoty RCMP got a report of a stolen vehicle from Lloydminster RCMP, which was equipped with GPS tracking, and in their area.
The combined efforts of Kitscoty, Lloydminster and Vermilion RCMP detachments enabled officers to find the vehicle, as well as a second vehicle they believed was also stolen.
The vehicles were on a lease site near Range Road 12 and Township Road 480.
Officers say when they approached the vehicles, both tried to flee.
One vehicle was stopped by a tire deflation device and the second stopped when it went into a field, according to police. Both drivers were taken into custody without further incident.
Sadie Lameman, 19, from Lloydminster faces charges of:
- Possession of stolen property over $5000

- Flight from police
- Dangerous operation of a motor vehicle
Also facing charges is 20-year-old Joshua Canada for:
- Possession of stolen property over $5000
- Possession of stolen property under $5000
- Flight from police
- Failure to comply with a release order
- Mischief under $5000
Both Lameman and Canada have been released from custody and are due back in Lloydminster Provincial Court on Sept. 13.
