On July 13, at approximately 11:20 p.m., Killarney RCMP received a report of an assault that occurred in the RM of Killarney-Turtle Mountain.
RCMP learned the 19-year-old male victim was preparing to leave the community in a vehicle when he was attacked by multiple males who held him down, wrapped him in a blanket and duct-taped his ankles and hands. The suspects then assaulted him with a stick, took his two cellphones and two small knives, loaded him in the back of an off-road vehicle and dropped him off near a wooded area a distance away.
The suspects – three of whom were partially masked – then left.
The victim was eventually able to free himself from the tape and make it home, at which point RCMP were called.
Four suspects from the RM of Killarney-Turtle Mountain have since been arrested in connection with the incident, ranging in age from 16 to 31.
Thirty-one-year-old Justin Gross, 22-year-old Gideon Waldner and 26-year-old Jayden Waldner are each charged with:
• Forcible confinement;
• Disguised with intent to commit offence;
• Overcoming resistance to the commission of an indictable offence; and
• Robbery.
A 16-year-old male is charged with:
• Forcible confinement;
• Robbery with weapon; and
• Overcoming resistance to the commission of an indictable offence.
All were released by the courts on release orders.
RCMP continue to investigate.
