A third man has been charged after a home invasion on Saulteaux First Nation Monday that left two men seriously injured.

Troy Ryan Delorme, 23, is also facing charges. Battlefords RCMP reported his arrest Wednesday afternoon.

Police say one man, found at the scene of the invasion at about 6 a.m., is suffering from serious stab wounds. Another man, who was being treated at Battlefords Union Hospital for a gunshot wound, was determined to have also been at the residence.

Two of the men charged, Troy Ian Walter Moccasin, 23, and 19-year-old Blake Moccasin of Saulteaux First Nation, appeared in North Battleford Provincial Court Tuesday.

RCMP say both were at the residence on the Saulteaux First Nation when three men broke in with their faces covered. According to police one victim was shot in the back with a shotgun and the other was attacked with edged weapons. While serious, the men’s injuries are described as non-life-threatening, although both were transported to hospital in Saskatoon for treatment.

The men arrested have all been charged with break, enter and aggravated assault, possession of a weapon and wearing a disguise or mask with intent.

Troy Moccasin also faces charges of discharging firearm with intent, use of a firearm in the commission of an offence, possession of a firearm contrary to prohibition order and two counts of breach of an undertaking.

Additional charges against Blake Moccasin are possession of a firearm contrary to a prohibition order, two counts of breach of probation, breach of undertaking  and obstruction of a police officer.

Delorme is also charged with possession of a firearm contrary to prohibition order, and two counts of breach of probation.

All are Criminal Code offences.
