Alberta RCMP look for guiding light in theft of senior’s keepsake Bible

WETASKIWIN, Alta. — There’s a spiritual twist to a theft investigation in central Alberta which police hope can receive guidance through a little help from the public.

RCMP say a senior woman was in a shopping mall parking lot in Wetaskiwin, south of Edmonton, on Feb. 2 when she was approached by an unknown female who demanded a ride.

When the driver refused, the stranger reached into her vehicle and grabbed a Bible the woman’s late husband had given her.

The driver was not hurt.
