A Saskatoon man charged in connection to a string of robberies across Central Saskatchewan failed to appear in court.
The court case against Cody Kemick, 37, was moved from Saskatoon Provincial Court to Rosetown Circuit Court but he failed to appear on Sept. 10. The judge adjourned the matter to Sept. 24 in Rosetown court and issued a bench warrant to hold. This means if Kemick fails to appear on that day the arrest warrant would go into effect.
According to police, between Feb. 4 and April 26, 2020, RCMP received numerous reports of break, enter and thefts across central Saskatchewan. The reports to police identified a White Ford F-150 at the thefts and an unidentified man. Police worked together and evidence they gathered throughout the investigation included surveillance videos of a suspect that police later identified as Cody Kemick.
On May 2 police obtained a search warrant for Kemick’s home and discovered computer equipment that was allegedly stolen from Western Wireless in Unity on April 18, 2020. During the search police also located what they believe to be stolen tools, computers, electronic devices, ammunition, cheques, salon products, lottery tickets and clothes from businesses, residences and vehicles in Saskatoon, Unity, Lucky Lake, Dinsmore, Rosetown, Kerrobert, Aberdeen, Humboldt, Milden, and Conquest.
Kemick was charged with three counts of break and enter, 10 counts of possession of stolen property, theft and mischief. Chantal Dubois, 40, was also arrested in the raid and charged with break and enter and seven counts of possession of stolen property.
Dubois is scheduled to appear in Saskatoon Provincial Court on Oct. 26.
