Robbery, Theft & Possession

Two males are facing charges following an investigation by the Regina Police Service Stolen Auto Unit.

On April 15, 2021, police were notified of an individual attempting to sell an alleged stolen Ford F-150 at a local car dealership. The VIN (Vehicle Identification Number) displayed on the truck did not match the vehicle’s true VIN. Police learned the original VIN on the vehicle was reported to be stolen. Through investigation, police determined the individual who was attempting to sell the truck at the dealership had purchased the truck on Facebook Marketplace. Police located the suspect male who sold the truck online and he was arrested and taken into custody. Further investigation led to the arrest of a second male on Wednesday, April 21, 2021. As a result:

Sixty year-old William Edward Francis MCFADZEAN, of Regina Beach, SK, has been charged with:

  • Fraud Over $5000 [CC 380 (1)(A)];
  • Possession of Property Obtained By Crime Over $5000 [CC 355 (A)];
  • Possession of Proceeds of Property Obtained By Crime Over $5000 [CC 355];
  • Trafficking Property Obtained By Crime Over $5000 [CC 355.2];
  • Forgery Make False Document [CC 366 (1)(A)];
  • Use a Forged Document [CC 368 (1)(A)].

Twenty-nine year-old Thomas Jacob MAIER, of Regina Beach, SK, has been charged with:

  • Fraud Over $5000 [CC 380 (1)(A)];
  • Possession of Property Obtained By Crime Over $5000 [CC 355 (A)];
  • Trafficking Property Obtained By Crime Over $5000 [CC 355.2];
  • Possession of Motor Vehicle – VIN Removed/Altered [CC 354 (2)].

MCFADZEAN will make his first court appearance on these charges in Provincial Court on August 23, 2021 at 9:30 a.m.

MAIER will make his first court appearance on these charges in Provincial Court on August 17, 2021 at 9:30 a.m.
