As a result, two male youths were arrested and police seized the three BB guns, police said in a statement.
“Investigation determined one of the youth discharged a BB style long gun at a vehicle at approximately 11:00 a.m.,” police said.
The youth will make a court appearance at Regina Provincial Court on April 8. The second male youth was released without charges.
Police cannot name the individuals due to the Youth Criminal Justice Act.
The RCMP said it would not be making any further comments at this time on the matter.
