Yellowknife RCMP are investigating the case of a stolen front-end loader.
RCMP officers were alerted to the stolen machine early Sunday morning while on patrol in Dettah, N.W.T.
At 1:58 a.m. that morning, officers received a report of a stolen front-end loader that had crashed into a ditch in the community, according to a press release issued Monday afternoon.
RCMP were later advised by an unnamed Yellowknife business that the same front-end loader had been stolen that night from a business on Franklin Avenue.
The release indicates "patrols were made" and the front-end loader was located.
The RCMP G Division's forensic identification service has processed the front-end loader for evidence and is investigating along with Yellowknife RCMP.
