A 24-year-old Regina man is facing a total of 16 charges after police found videos on cellphones that showed guns being pointed at people who were tied up and kittens being strangled or suffocated.
In a media release Friday, the Regina Police Service said a man was arrested in November after the street gang unit executed a search warrant on a house in the 200 block of Broad Street. Officers seized guns, drugs and two cellphones in the raid and the man was charged with drug and firearms offences that are still before the courts.
Investigators recently were given judicial authorization to access the contents of the cellphones, including videos and photos.
Police say their tech crimes unit found videos that show what police said were “assaults committed on, and firearms pointed at, individuals who are tied up and unable to leave. In addition, there are videos of kittens being suffocated or strangled by a male suspect.”
On Wednesday, police arrested the man show in the videos, Tyson Dylan Ray. He was charged with six counts of pointing a firearm, six counts of possession of a firearm contrary to an order, two counts of forcible confinement and two counts of cruelty to an animal causing unnecessary suffering.
Ray made his first court appearance on Thursday.
