BONNYVILLE - An Off-Highway Vehicle (OHV) equipped with tracker technology led local police to their suspect.
On July 9, Bonnyville RCMP received a report of a stolen quad. Using the OHV's tracker technology, the owner of the quad led officers directly to the residence where the stolen property was located.
Lyndon Badger, 40, was charged with theft, possession of stolen property, and mischief as a result. He was released by a Justice of the Peace on a $1,000 no cash promise to pay.
He is scheduled to appear in Bonnyville court Aug. 3.

Suspect remanded
Christopher Olszowka, 31, was arrested and charged by police on July 13 after local RCMP received a complaint of a break-in to a storage unit.
