'Sheer size' of windmill leads RCMP to believe someone likely saw something
The RCMP are fanning out in their search for a stolen 25-foot-tall windmill and hoping the public can provide some tips.
The turbine was taken sometime from July 4-6 from a property in the rural municipality of Grey, south of Portage la Prairie.
"Due to the nature of the sheer size of the stolen property, RCMP believe someone in the area may have seen something," a news release said on Wednesday.
The windmill is 7.6 metres tall with two-metre blades and is silver in colour.
Anyone with information is asked to please call the RCMP at 204-745-6760.
Anonymous tips can also be called in to Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477 or submitted online.
