Corbella: The recent home invasion in Penhold — that led to a resident being severely beaten with a baseball bat and an intruder being shot and killed — has reopened the debate about Alberta establishing a provincial police service to replace the unresponsive, unaccountable RCMP.
It can’t come soon enough.
As we now know, an unidentified man was shot and killed inside the house of a family returning home from camping on Monday, Aug. 2. What has only become evident lately is that this same man tried to break into the rural home on C and E Trail on Friday, July 30 and then again in the early morning hours of Saturday, July 31. RCMP from the Red Deer area arrested the man on both occasions but, according to the Alberta Crown Prosecution Service, no charges were ever laid.
