RCMP officers got a call about an assault at a camper trailer at a work site outside Indian Head at 11:15 p.m. on Monday. When officers arrived they learned that a male suspect had access to multiple guns and had made threats to harm others.
For safety reasons they called in File Hills Police Service, White Butte Detachment and Police Dog Services for backup to contain the area around the worksite. At 7:30 a.m. the next morning, the man left his trailer and started to drive away in a truck. He was taken into custody without incident.
Acting on a search warrant, officers seized multiple firearms along with hundreds of rounds of ammunition and prohibited high capacity ammunition magazines.
