Calgary Police Service (CPS) seized two firearms and charged four suspects in relation to the city’s home invasion and shooting that happened earlier in January.
CPS says on Jan. 2 at around 3:30 p.m., multiple suspects broke into a home located at the intersection of Martindale Boulevard and Martinbrook Road NE.
They then allegedly assaulted the resident in the house with a pistol and stole multiple items, such as cash and electronics. The assault resulted in a shooting that injured the victim and damaged his house.
Officers say CCTV footage helped identify the suspects. One day after the incident, they arrested two suspects, a man and a woman, in a stolen car with a 12-gauge, short-barrel shotgun, ammunition and a crossbow.
Police say on Jan. 7, they identified more suspects as they searched a home on Applewood Court SE, where they seized “a 3D-printed revolver-style pistol, multiple types of ammunition, a crossbow, a compound bow and a small amount of methamphetamine and cocaine.”
They say the incident was targeted, and the victim knew the suspects from before.
