Murray Wood: With just a bit more attention to detail, Kinsmen Park could be pretty perfect
There were people in Kinsmen Park paid to be working the other morning, so Murray Wood wonders why the litter wasn't pic...
A suspect is facing attempted murder and other charges after Saskatoon City Police say they responded to a hostage situation late Saturday afternoon.
Police say a female was being held against her will by her boyfriend at a residence the couple shared on Willis Crescent.
They say a Crisis Negotiation Team and Tactical Support Unit were deployed after the male allegedly threatened to kill both his girlfriend and himself.
Investigators say officers were able to rescue the female and arrest the male without anyone being injured.
The male was subsequently charged with attempted murder, uttering death threats, unlawful confinement, choking to overcome resistance and assault.
He’s scheduled to appear before a justice of the peace Sunday morning.
