An Ebb and Flow First Nation man faces multiple charges, after police responded to a report of shots fired inside a home on the reserve over the weekend.
Ste Rose RCMP were called to the home shortly before 3 p.m. on Dec. 7, and while en route, Mounties received an update that the suspect, who was known to them, had fled the scene on foot.
At the scene, police received word that a confrontation between the suspect and another male inside the home led to shots being fired, and the suspect took off into the woods, leaving the firearm behind.

26-year-old Shawn Francouer remains in custody awaiting a court date on numerous charges, including assault with a weapon and discharging a firearm with intent.
