In a press release, Inspector Dave Brunner, detachment commander of the Cochrane RCMP, states crime reduction units are an important part of Alberta RCMP’s Crime Reduction Strategy.

"They reduce the impact of crime in communities across Alberta by identifying repeat crime trends and targeting repeat offenders,” state Insp. Brunner.

“This investigation shows how the Cochrane Crime Reduction Unit uses their knowledge of local crime trends and offenders to disrupt crime in our community and further the RCMP’s goal of ensuring safe homes and safe communities throughout Alberta”.   

He asked anyone with information on Clark’s whereabouts to call Cochrane RCMP at 403-851-8000.

The detachment also encourages the public to report any criminal or suspicious activity. These reports help the RCMP determine where to search, who to look for, and where to patrol in the future.
