The man charged after shots were fired at a grader in Grande Prairie a year ago is going to jail.
Alberta Justice says Dakota Jackson Grey was given a four-year term after pleading guilty to discharging a firearm with intent and possession of a prohibited firearm. He was given a consecutive three-month sentence after pleading guilty to a charge of knowingly being in possession of an unauthorized firearm.
Seven other charges, including attempted murder, pointing a firearm and possession of a weapon were withdrawn.
RCMP said at the time that just before 12:30 a.m. on February 3, 2018, shots were fired at a grader near 100 Street and 84 Avenue.
The driver was not hit by any shots but still needed treatment in hospital for what police called minor injuries.
Mounties said the grader and a suspect vehicle had been involved in a collision.
