This past Sunday at approximately 1:05 am, Cross Lake RCMP received a report of a serious assault and were advised the victim was currently at the nursing station.

 

Officers attended the nursing station and located the victim, a 56-year-old male, with serious but non-life-threatening injuries.

 

Officers identified a suspect and he was located at a residence in the community. When officers were placing him under arrest, he became combative and began kicking the officers and other residents.

 

Further investigation led to more charges against the suspect as it was reported he had threatened several people earlier that morning.

 

Gino Ross, 23, has been charged with multiple offenses including aggravated assault and assault on a peace officer. 

He was remanded into custody.
