Three people are facing charges after a shooting causing serious injuries in a southern Alberta city.
Police say they received a report July 12th that a male had arrived at Medicine Hat Regional Hospital with injuries consistent with a gunshot wound and underwent treatment.
“Members of the Major Crimes Unit executed search warrants, conducted witness interviews, reviewed extensive CCTV footage, and gathered forensic evidence,” a police news release reads, “Investigators ultimately determined the incident was a targeted attack involving multiple suspects.”
Police believe the victim was shot at a southwest Medicine Hat home and have laid charges against three suspects.
Benjamin Adam, 45, of Medicine Hat has been charged with:
- Break and Enter
- Aggravated Assault
- Assault with a Weapon
- Possession of a Weapon Dangerous to the Public Peace
- Discharging a Firearm with Intent
Police say Adam is in provincial custody, having been sentenced on an unrelated matter and will return to court to answer the new charges.
Bodana Dye, 45, of Medicine Hat and Jade Holt, 26, of Medicine Hat are charged with aggravated assault, and were released from custody to appear in court later.
