RCMP arrest man and a woman attempting to flee the province

The RCMP picked up a man and a woman at Marine Atlantic Ferry Terminal who were attempting to flee the province.
On Sunday officers arrested 40-year-old Robert King and 41-year-old Tamara Lowe after Deer Lake RCMP received a report of a theft of gas and merchandise from White Bay Convenience located on the Trans-Canada Highway at Hampden Junction.
Surveillance footage obtained permitted officers to identify the suspects involved, King and Lowe. The suspect vehicle was last seen heading west on the TCH. Officers determined that both King and Lowe were unlawfully at large with outstanding arrest warrants and were on conditions to remain within the province stemming from charges currently before the court.
Channel-Port aux Basques RCMP was engaged by Deer Lake RCMP and the suspect vehicle was located at the Marine Atlantic Ferry Terminal, waiting to board the vessel.
The pair were arrested. Upon his arrest, King provided police with a false identity and was found in possession of a number of credit cards and other forms of identification that did not belong to him.
The vehicle was seized as part of the investigation, which is continuing at this time.
King is charged with theft under $5000.00, identity fraud, possession of property obtained by crime, three counts of failure to comply with conditions of a release order, and failure to attend court.
Lowe is charged with theft under $5000.00, three counts of failure to comply with conditions of a release order, and failure to attend court.
