Gun call leads to weapons seizures, single arrest in North Central
A man is facing a plethora of gun charges after police attended a weapons complaint in North Central Regina.
On Sept. 30 at around 7:10 a.m., officers were dispatched to a home on 1300 Retallack Street for a firearms offence.
Initial information provided to officers was that there were guns inside the home.
As officers arrived on scene, they reportedly witnessed a man running into the back alley near the home with what appeared to be a firearm and enter another home.
