Radisson man charged after incident at Sask. RCMP detachment
Following an incident on Monday at the Warman RCMP detachment, a 51-year-old man from Radisson is facing several charges including assault on a police officer with a weapon and possessing a weapon for a dangerous purpose.
At approximately 11:20 a.m., a vehicle was observed driving directly at the detachment but stopped just before hitting the building.
When officers approached, the lone occupant reportedly exited the vehicle armed with a bladed weapon and began uttering threats.
Officers attempted to de-escalate the situation through several verbal commands but the man did not comply and officers then deployed OC spray, commonly known as pepper spray.
