Moosomin is facing an assault charge in connection with an incident on the same First Nation on Jan. 12. According to the RCMP, two men assaulted a victim at a home, leading to non-life-threatening injuries.
“One of the males then threatened occupants with a firearm and discharged it inside the residence,” the RCMP said in a previous statement. “No one reported physical injuries related to the firearm discharge.”
Police said a drone and police dog were used to track down one of the suspects, a 34-year-old man, who was arrested near the home where the alleged assault took place. He was charged with recklessly discharging a firearm, pointing a firearm, uttering threats, assault, resisting or obstructing police, possession of a firearm knowing it is unauthorized, possession of a firearm in a motor vehicle and possession of a restricted or prohibited firearm with ammunition.
At the same time, the RCMP identified Moosomin as a suspect in the case and a warrant for his arrest was issued.
