Alberta Justice says trial dates have been set for the man charged after shots were fired at an occupied car near Lymburn in August of this year.

The trial for Ronald Pruss of Lymburn is set for September 18, 2023, in Grande Prairie.

Shots were fired at the car, but the driver took off and no one was hurt.

Fine given to one accused in July stolen property arrest

Alberta Justice says of the two people charged after a drug arrest in Grande Prairie, one has been fined after pleading guilty to one of the charges they were facing.

Monica Diane L’Hirondelle of High Prairie was given a $300 fine after pleading guilty to a charge of possession of stolen property under $5000. A possession of a prohibited weapon charge plus another of possession of stolen property under $5000 were withdrawn.

She was one of two people charged after RCMP were called out to a break and enter on the 1100 block of 100 Street on June 26 this year.

Police tracked down the suspects, plus two vehicles, and a hotel room they were associated with. Searches turned up stolen property, suspected crystal meth and a set of brass knuckles.

A warrant has been out for the second accused, Michael Siemens of Bezanson since he failed to show up for court on September 28.
