Loon Lake RCMP has issued an arrest warrant for Kashtin Lee Sandfly following an incident at Island Lake First Nation.

Shortly before 8:00 a.m. on Dec. 21, RCMP responded to a report of a firearm discharged at a residence on the First Nation. An injured adult male was located inside the residence. Police officers made extensive patrols throughout the communities of Island Lake First Nation and Mudie Lake First Nation and did not locate a vehicle reportedly involved.

Around noon the same day, RCMP then responded to a report of an injured adult male inside a vehicle on a remote, snowy road and an injured adult male inside. Because the road was barely passable, police officers had to transport the injured male to a main road in order for him to receive medical treatment.

This investigation is active and continuing at this time.

As a result of the initial investigation, Sandfly (1999-10-08) is charged with one count, discharge a firearm with intent and one count, being an occupant in a motor vehicle knowing a firearm is present.
