A 28-year-old man is facing several charges after allegedly holding multiple people against their will in La Loche.

Around 4:10 a.m. on Sunday, officers received a report of an armed person at a home in the community. They quickly determined an armed man wasn’t allowing two women to leave.

Officers set up a containment area and while doing so, the man exited the home and was subsequently arrested. Police also seized a firearm.

One of the women reportedly escaped before police arrived. The other was taken to the hospital with serious injuries.

As a result, Tremaine Dacres is facing 19 charges including forcible confinement and aggravated assault.
