A man and women in Fairview have been arrested on multiple firearm charges.
Fairview RCMP say they were investigating a known male offender with warrants on September 25th, when they were allegedly spotted driving on back roads in the region. Police say the suspect and another passenger then ditched what police say turned out to be a stolen vehicle and fled.
Police called in the K-9 unit were called-in to help, resulting in both eventually being found and arrested. Authorities say a search of the vehicle and suspects turned up two firearms.
A 41-year-old male and the 39-year-old female were charged with a combined seven counts of Firearm-related offences, three counts of Possession of firearm or weapon while prohibited, and a single count of assaulting a police officer, and more.
