On October 10, 2024, at approximately 6:40 pm, Dauphin RCMP received information that a Ford F150 pickup truck had been stolen from Roblin and was believed to be heading towards Dauphin.
Later that evening, Dauphin RCMP began receiving numerous calls about this same stolen vehicle travelling at high rates of speed on residential streets within the city.
Officers conducted patrols, while continuing to receive updates from the public on this stolen vehicle's location, and located the truck at a gas station in the city. A traffic stop was initiated however the vehicle fled the area at a high rate of speed. Due to public safety concerns, a pursuit was not initiated.
With continued assistance from the public, the stolen vehicle was reported to be in Grandview. After travelling at high rates of speed in the community, the vehicle hit the ditch and the occupants fled on foot. Officers in the area attended and, after a short foot pursuit, located and arrested the three occupants.
Two male youths (17,15) and a 20-year-old female, all from Roblin, were taken into custody.
The two youths were later released from custody to appear in court at a later date. Melonie Allarie, 20, was remanded into custody on numerous charges including Theft, Possession of Property Obtained by Crime, Resist Arrest and Fail to Comply with Release Order Conditions.
"Dauphin RCMP would like to thank the public for all their assistance, phone calls and updates on the location of this vehicle'', said Cpl. Kalvin Kristjanson of the Dauphin RCMP. "It is this exact type of community assistance that allows the RCMP to provide safer roads and communities."
Dauphin RCMP continue to investigate.
