Suspicious Person Reported

At approximately 4:00 AM on March 26, a male who appeared to be in his late thirties approached a parked vehicle outside of a homeowners garage on Glenbrook Blvd. The man essentially walked down the driveway behind the homeowners house. The man was asked what he was doing by a neighbour who was outside at the time, and he said he was just looking around before he sauntered off towards Georgian Way. Police were called and came immediately, but the male could not be located. Late thirties, grey hoodie, boots, dark jacket. He was likely looking for easily accessible valuables, or a vehicle to steal or a garage to break into. If you see any suspicious people near your home please call the RCMP complaints line at (780) 467-7741. Kudos to the RCMP for their fast response time. We have reported suspicious persons in our neighbourhood a few times throughout the years, and their responses have always been immediate and professional.
