Our news team has the exclusive on an apparent break-in that occurred at the Imperial 400.

This morning, workers on the picket line at Swift Current's Imperial 400  noticed the shipping/receiving door was pried open.

RCMP were called-in to investigate, as well as Sask Energy after a report of the smell of natural gas.

Corporal David Carriage says upon investigation, there was minimal damage inside, adding Sask Energy quickly fixed the gas problem.

Locked-out worker, Mike Nielson, says he hopes this break-in doesn't affect their back-to-work time line.

Nielson says they're getting close to reaching a settlement for the 83-week lock-out.

RCMP are continuing their investigation on the break-in and are in contact with the building manager and owner of the motel.
