The Estevan RCMP announced last week in a post on the Saskatchewan Crime Watch Advisory Network that it was investigating the theft of the rig shacks.

In a follow-up post on Thursday, the RCMP said that with the assistance from the Fillmore RCMP, they have recovered the two shacks. They were located at a rural oilfield site near Stoughton.

An oilfield worker in the area noted that the rig shacks did not belong there and remembered seeing a media release about them being stolen.

The RCMP would like to thank the public and in this case, the oilfield worker who assisted with the investigation.

No charges have been laid at this point and the investigation into how the rig shacks arrived at that location is ongoing.
