Maidstone RCMP have laid charges against three people after a dangerous person alert was issued last Tuesday.
On September 6th, around 2:45 a.m., Lloydminster RCMP responded to a shots fired call at a home in the city of Lloydminster. The suspect vehicle was a black newer model Ford Mustang.
About an hour later, Maidstone RCMP received a report of shots fired at a home in the RM of Brittania which also involved a black Mustang. Police say witnesses report multiple people got out of the car and started checking vehicles parked in the driveway. The homeowner came to the door and shots were fired towards the house. Bullets actually hit the house, no one inside was injured.
At 4:08 a.m. Maidstone RCMP received another report, this time, of people inside a black Mustang attempting to steal fuel from a home in the RM of Brittania.
An emergency alert was issued at 7 am and reports started coming in to RCMP of a vehicle leaving Lloydminster headed towards Onion Lake Cree Nation. Police located and disabled it using a spike belt and found out it was actually stolen from Paynton the day before.
Those inside took off. Two were tracked to a camper in the community and a third was found in a forested area where the car was disabled and last Tuesday evening two more suspects were arrested in the community.
Two of the people arrested were released without charges however, 24 year old Blair Chief from Onion Lake, 19 year old Jessica Fox from Poundmaker Cree Nation and a 15 year old male youth from North Battleford are each charged with resist-obstruct peace officer, flight from peace officer, possession of property obtained by crime over $5,000.
The events are still under investigation, meanwhile, Fox and the 15 year old were in court Friday and Blair Chief is in court today (Monday).
Multiple Saskatchewan and Alberta RCMP units, Saskatchewan Highway Patrol officers and conservation officers from the Provincial Protective Services Branch, Wilton Police Service, RCMP Police Dog Services and the Lloydminster Rescue Squad were part of the efforts to locate the suspect vehicle and its occupants.
