Police have said the suspect vehicle was passing the Durango when a shot was fired from the passenger window and into the tourist’s SUV.

The Durango crashed into the ditch after the shooting near the Goodstoney Rodeo Centre on Stoney Nakoda land.

Three family members who were passengers weren’t seriously injured.

The driver survived but was flown back to Germany where surgeons removed the bullet which will be sent to RCMP for forensic analysis. He can’t talk or move his right side as a result of the injury.

Police say although there were others in the car with the accused, no other charges are pending and investigators aren’t searching for any other suspects.
