The Edmonton Police Service has arrested a 30-year-old female wanted on more than 40 outstanding warrants for thefts from liquor stores across the city.

In November 2018 and March 2019, the EPS issued media releases seeking assistance identifying and locating a female that was believed to be involved in multiple thefts from liquor stores citywide.

 

On Wednesday, May 22, 2019, Downtown Division officers arrested Valynda Davis, 30, for 44 outstanding warrants, including possession of a dangerous weapon and theft under $5,000.  In addition to the outstanding warrants, Davis was also charged with theft under $5,000 (x3) and breach of probation in relation to recently reported thefts in west Edmonton.

 

Since August 2018, Davis is believed to have been involved in more than 30 thefts from liquor stores across Edmonton.

 

The EPS would like to thank the public and the media for sharing the media releases.
