This week, Burin Peninsula RCMP received two reports involving the overnight theft of fuel from vehicles parked at Donald C. Jamieson Academy on Main Street in Burin.
A suspect or suspects are believed to have come onto the property and siphoned gas from vehicles parked in the lot. Police believe these thefts occurred overnight on Oct. 14 and Oct. 15, 2026.
During their investigation, officers learned that a similar, unreported theft occurred in the same lot approximately two weeks ago.
The investigation is ongoing. Anyone with information about the identity of this suspect is asked to contact Burin Peninsula RCMP as soon as possible at 709-279-3001.
