Police find explosive device in stolen truck at Cross Iron Mills
What appeared to be an explosive device was found in a stolen vehicle in the parking lot of Cross Iron Mills on Monday.
According to a release from Airdrie RCMP, their officers assisted the Calgary Police Service in arresting 29-year-old Justin Denison, a Calgary man who had been driving the stolen Dodge Ram truck in the mall’s parking lot.
He was arrested without incident, though when police searched the vehicle they found what appeared to be an explosive device. The item, described in the release as a “smoke-type cannister,” was disposed of by the Alberta RCMP’s Explosive Disposal Unit.
