White Butte RCMP asks members of the public for assistance identifying semi

On October 12, 2024, White Butte RCMP received a report of a chemical spill on Highway #46.

Investigation determined a semi hauling a belly dump style of trailer left a business on the Service Road in Balgonie. While driving south on Highway #46, then continuing on to Highway #1 toward Winnipeg, the semi spilled fertilizer it was hauling. The semi did not stop at the scene of the spill.

The Balgonie Fire Department, Ministry of Highways, Ministry of Environment and Regina Bypass responded to – and are managing – the spill and clean-up, and were responsible for the closure of the highway that resulted from the spill. Any questions on these matters can be directed to the appropriate agency.

White Butte RCMP is now investigating whether there is a criminal element to the spill, including gathering information about the vehicle driver’s failure to stop after the spill and determining whether the resulting cost of clean-up constitutes mischief. 

The vehicle and driver have not been identified at this time. 

White Butte RCMP is asking members of the public for assistance. If you saw the semi spilling fertilizer on Highway #46 between 5:15 and 5:45 a.m. on October 12, or if you potentially captured security or dashcam footage of it, contact White Butte RCMP by dialling 310-RCMP. 

Information can also be submitted anonymously by contacting Saskatchewan Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477) or www.saskcrimestoppers.com.

Pay with Plastiq

Credit cards are now accepted. All fees are paid by the cardholder. Payments may take 3-5 business days to process. The Town of Balgonie is avoiding passing on the cost of card payments to all residents, so those wishing to pay by credit card or debit card will be charged a fee. This fee is charged by Plastiq, not the Town of Balgonie. (2.9% for credit cards, 1% for debit cards).
