The Moose Jaw Police service arrested a man in connection to the shooting that occurred early in the morning on Nov. 18 in the South Hill neighbourhood. 

Dustyn Halyk of Moose Jaw was arrested later that day, after MJPS executed a search warrant at a residence on the 1200 block of 9th Avenue Northeast. 

Halyk has since appeared before a judge. He has been charged with one count of discharging a firearm, possession of a dangerous weapon, unauthorized possession of a firearm, possession of a firearm in a motor vehicle, and two counts of possession of firearm while being prohibited.

While searching the residence, police also recovered a loaded sawed off shotgun, which they don’t believe was the firearm used in the shooting, and arrested Chris Waffle of Moose Jaw on several charges. 

Waffle has also appeared before a judge and has been charged with possession of cocaine for purposes of trafficking, possession of methamphetamine for purpose of trafficking, possession of a dangerous weapon, careless storage of a loaded firearm, and possession of an unauthorized firearm. 

Both men remain in custody. Police continue to investigate the incident.
