Three people in southern Saskatchewan are facing a laundry list of charges after allegedly taking part in the robbery of a home near the hamlet of Ardill.

The robbery was reported earlier in June at a home near the community of less than 200 people to Assiniboia RCMP.

Officers investigated, determining that a victim was threatened with a gun, assaulted, and robbed. The victim was treated at hospital for non-threatening injuries.

Police also found that a gun was pointed at the same victim in a separate incident involving one of the suspects from the robbery.

RCMP officers from Assiniboia executed a search warrant at a home in Ardill on June 27, with the assistance of Sask. RCMP’s Critical Incident Response Team.

The 40-year-old accused was also arrested for breaching a conditional sentence order.

The third suspect, a 24-year-old from Mossbank, was charged with seven counts in total, mainly weapons-related offences.

The three accused appeared in Moose Jaw Provincial Court on Friday.

Ardill is located approximately 125 kilometres southwest of Regina.
