Charges have been laid in the shooting that seriously wounded two RCMP officers in Melville earlier this week.
On Sunday night at about 9:30, Melville RCMP were sent to a home on 8th Avenue West. A suspect fired a gun multiple times, and two officers were hit. The shooter has now been identified as 55-year-old Markus Dodge of Melville.
Dodge faces two counts of attempted murder, two counts of aggravated assault, and two counts of firing a gun with intent, among other charges.
The RCMP say the injured officers remain in the hospital. They are in stable condition; however, their injuries are serious and potentially life-altering in nature.
