UPDATE: On July 28, the RCMP provided an update and said that Glynn is now in custody and has been charged with a dozen offences, including assault with a weapon and uttering threats.
Lac La Biche RCMP asked residents of Kikino Metis Settlement to shelter in place for several hours Tuesday afternoon.
A shelter in place that was issued at around 2:30 p.m. was lifted.
However, RCMP said they were still searching for a man who was considered “armed and dangerous.”
Patrick Glynn, 39, is described as six feet two inches tall and 194 pounds, with a medium complexion, brown hair and hazel eyes.
“Stay in your homes, lock your doors and do not open your door for anyone,” RCMP said in an earlier news release.
“Anyone driving on Highway 36, between Lac La Biche and Highway 28, are advised to not stop for any pedestrians or hitch hikers.”
Lac La Biche is about 215 kilometres northeast of Edmonton.
Anyone with information regarding the whereabouts of Glynn is asked to contact Lac La Biche RCMP at 780-404-2500 or local police.
RCMP said officers are in the area and “the public should remain vigilant.”
