Man charged in local firearms incidents going to trial
A man charged in two separate firearms incidents in Red Deer over the past year will now go to trial in 2022.
Justin James Poteet, 27, is scheduled to go to trial for one of his matters on Jun. 1, 2022, and speak to his other matter the same day.
In the matter set for trial, Poteet is charged in an incident that began around 9:51 p.m. on Jan. 8, 2021, when Red Deer RCMP received a firearms complaint at a residence near Arnold Close and Amlee Close.
During the investigation there was a large police presence, with Mounties later confirming that a gun was fired, but no one was injured.
