The Northeast District RCMP of the Caraquet detachment is asking for the public's help in its investigation into the theft of speed limit signs on the Acadian Peninsula.
Since the beginning of March 2018, police have received reports of at least a dozen speed limit signs that were taken from roads in the communities of Janeville, Pokeshaw, Grande-Anse, Dugas, Bertrand and Paquetville. Speed limit signs are strategically placed to advise drivers of appropriate and legal speeds. Their absence can pose a danger to motorists and others.
Anyone with information about these thefts is asked to contact the Caraquet Detachment at 506-726-5222. Should you wish to remain anonymous, please contact Crime Stoppers toll free at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477), or by Secure Web Tips at www.crimenb.ca.
