A Grande Prairie man is facing weapons charges after an outside the box traffic incident late last month.
The Grande Prairie RCMP said officers saw what they call a disturbance on the road near 100 Avenue and 108 Street on May 29th, when a man fall out of the box of a truck and then continued to walk down the roadway.
Police were quick to check on his wellbeing, and when they did, allegedly noticed a sawed off shotgun attached to his backpack. The 36-year-old is facing charges including possession of a weapon for a dangerous purpose, unsafe storage of a firearm and unauthorized possession of a firearm.
