Red Deer man sentenced to six years for shooting east of Olds
A Red Deer man has been sentenced to six years behind bars for a shooting east of Olds just under a year ago.
Lyle Robert Walter Vance, 28, pleaded guilty on Feb. 10 to discharging a firearm with intent, careless use of a firearm and possession of a prohibited firearm.
He was also ordered to submit a DNA sample, banned from owning firearms and is to serve his six-year term consecutively to another sentence he is serving.
It was on March 20, 2020 when Olds RCMP attended a property near Township Road 320 and Range Road 290 in Mountain View County and discovered a 47-year-old man suffering from a gunshot wound. He was taken to hospital by STARS with what were later determined to be non-life threatening injuries.
