Red Deer
Rebels are home tonight – Food and beverages available
News release from the Red Deer Rebels
Finally, a home game! We’re happy to welcome everyone back to the Peavey Mart Centrium tonight, as we take on the Brandon Wheat Kings at 7PM.
As per AHS and Government of Alberta restrictions, presently, no food and beverage items are permitted in the arena bowl or concourse. However, we have found a solution until the restriction is removed! During the game and intermission, fans can enter the Parkland Pavillion behind Section W, where canned beer/ciders/seltzers/soda, along with burgers, ice cream sandwiches, brisket sandwiches, and other items will be available. Seating is provided for 500 fans, via tables of 10. As per regulations, food and beverage must only be consumed while seated. The space will be open postgame as well, with alcohol sales ending at 10:00pm.
We are thankful for Westerner Park’s efforts in working with AHS to provide this opportunity. We anticipate this service being available until the restriction has been lifted.
As a reminder, this past Wednesday’s home game vs. Prince Albert has been rescheduled to Monday, January 17 at 7pm!
Other rescheduled games include… Jan. 7 vs Edmonton is now Feb. 22, and Jan. 8 vs Lethbridge will be played on Mar. 28.

Police arrest thieves using garage-door openers to access homes in Vanier, West Park, Anders Park, and Evergreen
News release from Red Deer RCMP
Red Deer RCMP charge male & female following series of break & enters
Red Deer RCMP have arrested and charged two people, following a series of residential break and enters and vehicle thefts.
Police first received a call on Sept. 23, 2025 from a resident reporting her garage had been broken into and two vehicles stolen.
Further calls to police on Sept. 29 and Oct. 6, 2025 reported residents had their purses stolen from inside vehicles parked outside, as well as a report of a stolen vehicle from outside a residence on Oct. 8th. These incidents happened in the Vanier, West Park, Anders Park South, and Evergreen neighbourhoods.
Investigation linked these reports and showed two suspects opening unlocked vehicles, taking items from inside, and using garage-door openers found in the vehicles to enter residential garages to gain access to further items, keys and vehicles.
Victims reported use of stolen credit cards and personal accounts, which led police to further video surveillance that helped identify the suspects, who were known to police.
RCMP located the suspects at a residence in the Oriole Park neighbourhood, where they were both arrested.
A search of the property resulted in police locating and seizing the following:
- Vehicle key fobs reported stolen by victims
- Purses and wallets containing multiple victim’s ID’s
- Phones, garage door openers, and other items reported stolen by victims
- Clothing worn by the suspects in surveillance footage
- A small amount of crystal methamphetamine
All three stolen vehicles have since been recovered.
Riley Badger, a 30-year-old resident of Red Deer, has been charged with:
- Possession of property obtained by crime over $5000
- Possession of property obtained by crime under $5000 x2
- Illegal Possession of Government Documents x3
- Theft, Forgery or Misuse of Credit Card
- Theft under $5000 x4
- Fail to Comply with Release Order x5
Michelle Walker, a 40-year-old resident of Red Deer, has been charged with the following:
- Possession of property obtained by crime over $5000
- Possession of property obtained by crime under $5000 x4
- Illegal possession of Government Documents x3
- Theft, Forgery or Misuse of Credit Card
- Identity Theft
- Wear disguise with intent to commit offence x2
- Fail to Comply with Release Order x6
- Fail to Comply with Probation Order x4
- Possession methamphetamine
Both Badger and Walker were remanded into custody following a Judicial Interim Release Hearing, and are scheduled to appear in court at the Alberta Court of Justice in Red Deer on Oct. 29, 2025.
