Calgary police look to identify pair connected to recovered vehicle with guns, ammo

Calgary police are appealing to the public to identify two men believed to have information in connection to a recovered vehicle that was found in the northeast community of Mayland Heights last year.

Investigators say on Saturday, Dec. 23 around 11 p.m., officers saw a 2013 silver Volkswagen Passat with a stolen license plate driving along 19 Street NE.

Officers tried to pull the vehicle over, but it fled.
