Three people are now facing charges after High Prairie RCMP recovered a stolen vehicle.

On June 11, High Prairie RCMP began an investigation into a theft of a vehicle in Grouard, Alberta.

High Prairie RCMP then received a complaint of a suspicious vehicle on June 12, which was found to have been the stolen vehicle previously reported.

The driver and two occupants were arrested, and a search resulted in RCMP seizing a hand gun, drug trafficking paraphernalia, and quantities of money and methamphetamine.

Twenty-nine-year-old Silas Joshua Thunder of Edmonton, 23-year-old Cheris Thea Gladue of Atikameg First Nations, and a 17-year-old youth of Gift Lake Metis Settlement, who cannot be identified under the Youth Criminal Justice Act, are now facing charges.
