An 18-year-old Saskatoon man wanted on numerous outstanding warrants is now facing several weapons charges.

Police say they found the suspect riding a bicycle and wearing a sword at the intersection of 33rd Street West and Avenue B North.

Offices were alerted to a man with a large knife at the fast food restaurant in the 100 block of 33rd Street West, yelling at people at about 9 o’clock last night.

Police say they found two additional knives after making the arrest.

Charges include possession of a dangerous weapon, carrying a concealed weapon and resisting arrest.

Have Your Say

When you receive your carbon tax rebate by direct deposit have you ever not known where it came from, regardless of how it was identified on your statement?

The Candian government wants the country’s banks to identify, in customers’ bank statements when they receive the carbon rebate, that it is labelled as such.

Environment Minister Steven Guilbeault says the lack of a clear identifier is contributing to confusion about carbon price rebates, so he is going to change the law if he has to in order to force the big banks to identify the carbon rebate by name when doing direct deposits.

The first rebate deposits in 2022 were labelled very generically, which meant recipients had no idea why they were getting the money.

T-D and B-MO have adopted the government’s requested “CdaCarbonRebate” entry, R-B-C and Scotiabank say they couldn’t make the change in time for the rollout, and C-I-B-C is still calling it “Deposit Canada.”
