Suspect of recent AMBER Alert will not be charged for incident

An AMBER Alert involving a five-day-old baby and his father was issued on the afternoon of October 17.

Shortly after the alert, the suspect turned himself in without incident at the Big River RCMP detachment.

Officers assessed the baby, who appeared healthy and safe. EMS was called to assess him as a precaution.

Saskatchewan RCMP’s Prince Albert General Investigation Section (GIS) took charge of the investigation of the incident.

After thorough investigation, it has been determined that no charges will be laid at this time in relation to the incident.

There is no further information about the incident or the child.

Although the suspect won’t be charged in the AMBER Alert related incident, he is facing one charge of assault and one charge of assault by choking in relation to a recent incident on Montreal Lake Cree Nation.
