One man was arrested following a weapons-related call to Police last night.

At approximately 7:00 p.m., March 16, 2021, Patrol officers were dispatched to a weapons call at an apartment in the 200 block of Avenue P South. Upon Police arrival, the complainant stated that a man was in a suite threatening a woman with a shotgun. Officers were met by two women at the suite who were unharmed, and safely removed them from the scene. The male suspect refused to exit the suite for some time, before fleeing off of a balcony. The male was subsequently arrested and transported to hospital by Medavie Health Services for serious but non-life threatening injuries caused by the fall. An imitation firearm was located in the suite.

A 47-year-old Saskatoon man is charged with Assault with a Weapon, Using a Firearm to Commit an Offence, Possession of a Dangerous Weapon, Uttering Threats to Cause Death, Being Unlawfully in a Dwelling and Breach of Undertaking. He also had eight outstanding warrants for his arrest.
