A trial date has been set for three individuals charged in a November 2024 incident where they were allegedly found in possession of weapons and drugs.

On Oct. 22, 2025, 53-year-old Brenton Almond, a Red Deer resident, 25-year-old Rain Yellowface, a resident of O’Chiese First Nation, and 33-year-old Red Deer resident Axel Martin-Grant, will stand trial in the Alberta Court of Justice in Red Deer.

It was Nov. 13, 2024, when the Red Deer RCMP Crime Reduction Team located an unoccupied vehicle that had been reported stolen at a north-end business near 52 Avenue and 77 Street.

Members conducted surveillance on the vehicle, leading to the arrest of three individuals. Police allege that fentanyl and multiple weapons, including a sawed-off shotgun, were found in the vehicle.
