iceman Posted January 6, 2017 Report Share Posted January 6, 2017 Arrest of a snowmobile thief in Shawinigan The Sûreté du Québec Multidisciplinary Support Team conducted Wednesday morning the arrest of Tommy Bruneau on the edge of a trail in the Lac-à-la-Tortue area of Shawinigan. Publicity The police wanted to intercept a snowmobiler on a trail in the morning, but the latter escaped instead of stopping. He was chased by the latter and they would have lost sight of him. After about one hour of trail tracking, the police located an abandoned snowmobile. It was reported stolen. They followed footsteps and asked the help of citizens to finally find the suspect who had hidden behind cedars. They arrested the 30-year-old man on the spot. Well known to the police, Tommy Bruneau appeared yesterday afternoon at the Shawinigan courthouse. A series of charges were laid against him: dangerous driving, escaping and stowing vehicles. The man will also receive a dozen reports of offenses related to the law on off-road vehicles, in particular. You can run but you can't hide. Nice Job by the SQ.

Saguenay Bill Posted January 6, 2017 Report Share Posted January 6, 2017 Great police work. Now I just hope the judge doesn't give him a pat on the hands and turn him loose. Thanks for posting Ice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had not heard of any thefts so most likely was stolen from a chalet or something. From a local. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
