MAYERTHORPE, Alta. — RCMP say they have not been able to find two armed robbery suspects last seen west of Edmonton.
They say it's believed the men are no longer in the Mayerthorpe area and that there is not an imminent risk to the community.
An emergency alert was issued earlier in the day after Mounties responded to a report of a stolen vehicle.
They say the vehicle was found abandoned and officers received information that the occupants had fled on foot with weapons.
RCMP say the public should remain vigilant and report any suspicious activity to police.
One suspect is described as white, about 30 years old, five feet 11 inches tall, 205 pounds with dark hair and dark eyes, who was last seen wearing a cowboy hat and black sweater.
The other man is six feet tall, about 220 pounds, with brown hair and blue eyes, wearing a black flat brim hat with red letters.
