The Prince Albert RCMP Crime Reduction Team has charged a man and two women from the Sturgeon Lake First Nation with weapons offences following a search warrant last week.

On Feb. 12, officers from the municipal and federal detachments searched a home located on Agency Road in Sturgeon Lake First Nation. They found and seized a sawed-off shotgun, ammunition, a replica handgun, a spear-gun and a quantity of suspected hydromorphone.

Shania Yooya, 24, Brennan Sanderson, 27, and 29-year-old Shannon Sanderson are facing multiple charges including possession of a weapon for a dangerous purpose and possession of a weapon obtained by crime.

Brennan Sanderson and Shannon Sanderson were released from custody and are scheduled to appear in provincial court in Prince Albert on March 18.

Yooya will appear on Feb. 20.
