Three people are in custody and a warrant has been issued for a fourth in connection with a shooting targeted at a home in the East Flat in mid-July.

The Prince Albert Police’s proactive policing unit said that following some investigation, they arrested Jelena Lafluer, age 22, Tyler Keenatch, age 30 and Prosper Daignault, age 28.

All are facing multiple gun charges.

On July 12, police were called to the 300 block of 9th Ave. East for a weapons complaint around 10:20 p.m. Multiple shots were targeted at a home and one person later went to the hospital with a gunshot wound. No one inside the house was hurt.

A picture taken the morning after showed multiple bullet holes in the door and surrounding wall.

Keenatch is charged with intentionally shooting a gun at a place as well and has bail violations.

Daignault is also charged with shooting a gun at a moving vehicle and aggravated assault.

A warrant has been issued for Justin Morin, age 38, the fourth suspect.

He is charged with helping escape knowing a firearm was recklessly discharged and being the occupant of a motor vehicle containing a banned or restricted firearm.

Along with the PPU, the Crime Reduction Team, Community Policing Unit and Forensic Identification section were part of the investigation.
