Section 1: The Alert
Fort Saskatchewan RCMP are asking the public for help identifying a man believed to be responsible for a series of liquor thefts from the same store at the intersection of 100 Street and 88 Avenue in Fort Saskatchewan, Alberta. These incidents occurred on three separate dates between December 2025 and March 2026 and involved several hundred dollars’ worth of alcohol.

This ongoing pattern of theft affects local businesses and the wider community. Residents in and around Fort Saskatchewan, especially those familiar with area crime and safety trends from resources such as the Fort Saskatchewan crime statistics and safety data, are urged to review the suspect description and photo carefully and contact police with any information.
