Manhut underway for two men wanted in armed robbery on Red Pheasant
Battlefords RCMP are asking the public to report any sightings of two men wanted in connection to a robbery and assault investigation earlier this week on Red Pheasant Cree Nation.
Mounties said 22-year-old Lorenz Paskimin and 25-year-old Silas Soosay face multiple charges including robbery with a firearm, assault with a weapon, pointing a firearm, possession of a weapon for a dangerous purpose, unauthorized possession of a firearm, possessing a firearm in a motor vehicle and failing to comply with a release order.
The charges stem from an incident on July 7 when two men stole a vehicle from a residence after stabbing a man. The victim received non-life threatening injuries and police recovered the stolen blue Hyundai Sonata later that day.
Paskimin is described as about five-foot-eleven and 161 pounds, with brown eyes, short brown hair and multiple tattoos on his neck and face, including a teardrop and small numbers on his cheeks.
