On October 27 at approximately 4:50 p.m., police received a complaint from an off-duty RCMP officer that her van had been broken into and her purse, which contained her wallet as well as her RCMP badge, had been stolen while she was at the Rocky Lake Dome located at 44 Verdi Drive.
On December 14, the badge was located wrapped in a facecloth and had been anonymously placed in a mailbox at a church on First Lake Drive in Lower Sackville. The badge was then turned in to the RCMP detachment in Lower Sackville and later retrieved by its rightful owner.
