COUTTS, Alberta (LifeSiteNews) — Canadian police sabotaged three excavator vehicles parked on private property by cutting their electrical and control cables in order to prevent their use in a southern Alberta blockade.
The Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) said they “disabled” the excavator vehicles to prevent them from being used in the vehicle blockade at the U.S.-Canada border near Coutts, according to CBC News.
Fifty-three provincial tickets were also issued, the news outlet said Sunday.
“We continue to work with our efforts to put an end to this illegal blockade and I’m sure that will continue in the days to come,” said RCMP Cpl. Troy Savinkoff.
Rebel News shared a video showing that numerous wires were cut in the vehicles, with one man explaining filters were also removed and spray foam was “put up fuel lines” to cause further damage.
He said the vehicle operators were asked by RCMP to take their vehicles out of view of the highway, and so they “obliged them” and parked them on private property with the permission of the owner.
When they returned to the excavators, they found they had been sabotaged.
