After an alleged shooting on the Montreal Lake Cree Nation prompted a provincial emergency alert last week, both suspects are now facing charges.
On Thursday, police received a report of a shooting outside a home on the Cree nation, which is located about 100 kilometres north of Prince Albert, and responding officers found a man with serious injuries outside a home.
“Investigation determined that there was an altercation between the victim and two other males,” the RCMP said in a statement. “A firearm was discharged and the male was injured.”
