MARYFIELD – A non-profit group in Saskatchewan that works with conservation officers wants to find suspects it says had allegedly used a truck to chase down and kill deer.

SaskTip says witnesses saw a truck deliberately run over the animals this week on the outskirts of Maryfield, 250 kilometres southeast of Regina near the Manitoba boundary.

The organization says conservation officers found the remains of three white-tailed deer, including two fawns.

It says it believes one truck was actively pursuing the animals while the other was sitting idle.

SaskTip says both vehicles fled when they were approached by witnesses.

It’s offering a cash reward of up to $2,000 for anyone with information that leads to the arrest or conviction of the suspects involved.
