Loon Lake RCMP is looking for 31-year-old Christian Mitsuing from Makwa Sahgaiehcan First Nation to face several charges, including assaulting a police officer with a weapon in the form of an ATV.
Police said in a news release on Tuesday that officers were called to Makwa Sahgaiehcan First Nation after a report of a firearm being discharged on Oct. 13 around 7 p.m.
Police found that no one had been injured in the incident, but during the investigation an ATV was driven at high-speed at one officer who was taking statements.
Police said the officer had to quickly jump out of the way but was uninjured. The ATV, with a man driving and a woman as passenger, then took off.
On Oct 14, police said officers were patrolling on Makwa Sahgaiehcan First Nation when they saw the ATV from the previous night’s incident. Officers attempted to stop the ATV but it again took off.
Police have charged Mitsuing with operating a vehicle while prohibited, dangerous operation of a motor vehicle, assault with a weapon on a police officer, and fleeing from police.
A warrant has been issued for his arrest and Loon Lake RCMP is actively working to locate him.
Mitsuing is described as about 5-foot-10 and 180 lbs with black hair and brown eyes. He also has numerous small tattoos on his face, police said.
