Teens caught with bear spray, imitation firearm outside Saskatoon school

Two teen boys were arrested outside a Saskatoon high school Friday, and police say they were carrying bear spray and an imitation firearm.

According to police, officers were informed that the boys were armed with bear spray and had just left a high school on Rusholme Road. Police did not name the school, but the address given in a statement corresponds with Mount Royal Collegiate.

Officers quickly caught up with the young duo outside another high school on Avenue M North — the address given by police matches up with that of E.D. Feehan Catholic High School.

The boys, ages 14 and 15, were arrested and will soon be facing weapons charges, police said.
