Neither the driver or the vehicle were still at the scene when police arrived, “moments later,” according to a news release.
Police said safety concerns over the alleged firearm prompted officers with the police’s tactical support scene to respond to the scene for assistance.
“Investigation determined the suspect was in a residence nearby. He was located and taken into custody without further incident,” Regina police said in its release.
Officers reportedly found a BB gun inside the home and seized it.
