Moose Jaw resident Justin Donnell is in police custody after being charged in relation to an incident near Mosaic Place last week.
The Moose Jaw Police Service attended to the 100 block of High Street West on Sept. 12 after receiving a call about a disturbance, a police news release explained. Upon arrival, officers located an adult male — Donnell — who had been in an altercation.
Donnell was suffering from non-life threatening injuries and was transported to the Dr. F. H. Wigmore Regional Hospital, where he was later released back into police custody.
During their investigation, police determined that Donnell had allegedly broken into an apartment while allegedly wearing a mask and armed with weapons. He was confronted by the resident of the apartment and a struggle ensued, at which point Donnell was injured, the news release said.
The resident of the apartment was co-operative with police and was released with no charges.
Police charged Donnell with break and enter with intent, assault with a weapon, mischief, and disguise with intent. He appeared in court recently and was remanded back into custody.
Donnell and the victim were known to each other, the news release said.
Police continue to investigate and further charges could be laid.
