Reckless shots fired in Rossland

Trail and Greater District RCMP officers are on the look out for two men allegedly shooting firearms in the 2600 block of McLeod Avenue, in Rossland.

On Friday, May 30, at 2:33 p.m. officers responded to the alleged reports and found one man who appeared to be carrying a black assault rifle and may have discharged the rifle toward a private property.

The other man appeared to be in possession of a black handgun.

The first man is described at Caucasian, late 20s/early 30s, medium build, and was wearing a blue long sleeve shirt, blue jeans, and brown boots.

The second man is described at Caucasian, late 20s/earlier 30, heavy build, with dark brown hair, and was wearing sunglasses, a red t-shirt, black pants, and brown boots.

The matter remains under investigation.

If you know the identity of these two men, or have any information about this incident, please call 250-364-2566 to speak to an investigation.

“Trail RCMP has concerns about the weapons being fired on a rural property without the necessary mindfulness on where the bullets were landing. We would like to identify both individuals to continue on with the investigation, determine the exact nature of the incident, and if a criminal offense has occurred,” said Sgt. Mike Wicentowich.
