MAIDSTONE — Maidstone RCMP are investigating a suspicious person report.

On the morning of Nov. 26, two youths were walking in a residential area in Maidstone when they were asked by an adult male parked in a red SUV if they wanted some chocolate. He was not known to them.

The youths declined and continued walking. No further interaction occurred between them and the man. The incident was reported later that same afternoon to Maidstone RCMP.

Community patrols and neighbourhood inquiries were conducted by police officers and the man was not located.

The vehicle is described as a red SUV pulling a small utility trailer full of appliances. The lone “older” male driver was reportedly wearing a plain, light blue or grey hooded sweater and was sitting in the driver’s seat eating a chocolate bar.

Maidstone RCMP is seeking the public’s assistance in identifying the male or vehicle described above.

Anyone with information regarding this matter should contact the Maidstone RCMP at 306-893-4800. To remain anonymous, call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477 or visit .
