Charges laid after sawed-off shotguns, drugs seized from vacant property in Bluesky

Several weapons and a small amount of drugs were seized after a search of a pair of RVs and a vehicle on a vacant property in Bluesky earlier this month.

Fairview RCMP says officers were dispatched after receiving a report of an assault with a weapon. After identifying the suspect, an investigation uncovered that the suspect may be in illegal possession of firearms.

Police executed a search warrant on the Bluesky property on May 7th, and turned up five weapons, two of which were sawed-off shotguns, as well as a crossbow, ammo, a small amount of drugs, and approximately $3,000 in cash.

A 38-year-old Clear Hills County resident is facing charges including assault with a weapon, uttering threats and possession of a firearm while prohibited.
