Battleford man appears in Saskatoon court on theft, forgery charges

Arrest was made in the middle of an alleged break-in

SASKATOON - A Battleford man arrested with the help of Saskatoon Police Service Air One appeared in Saskatoon Provincial Court Aug. 30 on theft and forgery charges.

Dean Cordell Spokes, 52, was arrested in May allegedly in the middle of breaking into a business in the R.M. of Corman Park, north of Asquith. Martensville and Warman RCMP officers, and Corman Park Police also responded.

Air One located a motor home involved in the incident and Corman Park Police arrested the driver on Highway 16. Radisson RCMP officers arrested another person a short time later.

Spoke had failed to appear in Saskatoon Provincial court in August and a warrant to hold was issued, which has now been vacated.

Spokes is now scheduled to appear in Saskatoon court on Sept. 16 to enter a plea. He is charged with theft under $5,000, mischief under $5,000, possession of break-in instruments, possession of property obtained by crime, and making/sell/possess instruments for making a forged document.

The charges against Spokes haven’t been proven in court.
