And then a few hours later, at around 4:30 a.m. Monday morning, a 52-year-old woman was found in the area where the first man was located.

Police were able to identify a suspect, a 19-year-old man, and just before 5:30 a.m, officers came across a residence with the man inside.

It was then when shots were fired at RCMP officers from inside the house. The suspect then attempted to escape using an off-road vehicle, but was tracked down.

Charges have not yet been formally laid as the investigation continues.
