On Feb. 28, 2023, at 7:10 a.m., Lake Louise RCMP were dispatched to a report of a carjacking.

The victim was at a gas station in Lake Louise and was preparing to fuel her vehicle when she was approached by the suspect.

  • Light complexion
  • Dark and grey scruffy facial hair
  • Approximately 40-50 years old

  • Possibly under the influence of drugs

The stolen vehicle is a dark grey 2009 Ford Escape with Alberta licence plate CML 9437.

The vehicle had black steel wheels with no hubcaps. The rear wiper is broken and stuck in the upright position.

Anyone with information on the location of the stolen vehicle, or on the identity of the suspect is asked to contact the Lake Louise RCMP at 403-522-3812 or your local police service.
