Lake newell ice shack thefts and arson
Hello everyone, for those of you who have ice huts out on newell please go out and check them. Mine was stolen and burnt to the ground. several others have been burnt or stolen also. Pretty sad and concerning. My daughter is devastated as we spent all out time out there. Now we have no hut auger or gear for the rest of the winter awesome! So heads up and go have a look and report it to the RCMP please!
Cheers!

Since this guy will probably get a slap on the wrist, I think the fairest punishment is for him to be locked in a room for 5 minutes with all those who owned the shacks! What a dick!! Sorry to hear fellas.

That happened to my husband Kerry and his buddy Gerry back in 2010 on Sylvan Lake. They had a big shack, and this guy they knew got his panties in a bunch when he couldn't use the shack, because Gerry had friends coming there that day (Gerry built the shack, Kerry helped him). Anyhow this guy drove out and drove into the shack and smashed it to pieces. I made a posting about it long ago on this board... HERE

Sorry to hear of the losses suffered.
Part of the guys punishment should be that he rebuild all the shacks he ruined, at his expense... while he is in jail.

ALL around the lake, he even took one from green wall and towed it to the south end of the lake, it was towed back and he hit it a second night trying to burn it. Were going out at lunch to see it we can find our stuff, fingers crossed as i didn't see a burnt auger and such where he burnt my shack down, If anyone needs a hand cleaning up please message me I'm free this weekend to help.
Cheers!

So, is this guy just your average nutbar or does he have some kind of personal vendetta against someone or something? I'm not familiar with the area, so am unaware of any possible confrontations, etc. between fishermen and say landowners, etc ?

most of the land around the lake is owned by EID and I havent heard of any issues with access. I think this guy is just a sick individual who needs some special treatment REAPER do you know who owned the Shasta?

Sorry to hear about this. Bad enough to simply wreck someones shack, but arson is ussually treated very seriously. Hope the a-hole gets some serious punishment. Also hope the judge is a fisherman.
Does anyone from around there know this guy? He sounds mentally disturbed.

Holy Crap ! It is a battle zone out there! I can't believe that this happens. Very sorry to hear of the loss of property. I have a few spare rods ... I think a reel and some tackle to donate to start the rebuilding process. I would be devastated if my ice season was at risk because of some lunatic! PM me and I will get some stuff over to you.

I'm hearing reports that the police were able to catch the culprit(s) Wednesday evening. Perhaps its the same moron that's been out shooting EIDs' and Cenovus' property.

THIS is unbelievable and quite alarming to say the least. I can't believe that this was all done by one individual, so I hope the police keep looking. The carnage and waste is sickening to say the least.
Everyone with shacks anywhere should be vigilant and weary of copy-cat sicko's like this POS!
Dammit I want to kick something!

I saw 4 shacks that were destroyed 2 burnt on the lake, one burnt on the road, and one smashed up on a road. I have also heard that there were 2 more burnt on the lake but I haven't seen those ones, that would make 6 all together so far. Some house owners at the resort saw the suspect drive away. They called the RCMP, while following him. The police did finally catch him.

Just went and checked another members shack. On Jackfish. It was ok but thete was anothet one burned just off shore that would have been dragged there since that spot is too shallow to fish. Thats at least 5 that I know of and there are probably more. The Rcmp were just leaving the bay when I got there

I was shocked and saddened to hear of this vandalism. Condolances to all who were impacted. We fished Big Rainier on Wed. Jan. 28 where there are/were 4 permanent ice shacks. There was no one around all day. I sure hope none of these were impacted. Glad they caught the vandal(s).
