The Saskatchewan RCMP are searching for two men suspected of a variety of armed robberies and related crimes across multiple Saskatchewan and Alberta communities.
On Saturday afternoon, the RCMP received a report that a pair of men driving a silver car fueled up the car at a business on Frontage Road in Cut Knife, Sask. and left without paying. Witnesses described the men as thin, South Asian men with dark hair and trimmed beards.

One witness followed them from Cut Knife to the Sweetgrass First Nation area, until the men in the car pulled over and pointed a gun at the driver following them. No one was injured.
Approximately an hour after the men left Cut Knife, members of the Battlefords RCMP caught sight of the silver car on Sweetgrass First Nation.
“They attempted a traffic stop but the vehicle did not stop,” the RCMP said in a news release. “Officers continue working to locate the vehicle and suspects.”
At this time, the RCMP is asking the public to report any sightings of a 2017 silver Toyota Camry with the Alberta license plate E16 163. The vehicle itself, the RCMP has found, was stolen from the Edmonton area on August 7.
If you see the two men or their vehicle, the RCMP says not to approach them, but to call 310-RCMP, your local police office or Saskatchewan Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477).
The RCMP says these two men are also suspects in an armed robbery in Leduc, Alberta that took place earlier on Saturday.
