Fort McPherson resident Abraham Stewart has been charged with:

  • Failure to comply with Undertaking Conditions
  • Two counts of Robbery,
  • Mischief under $5,000
  • Assault with a Weapon
  • Two counts of Forcible Confinement, and
  • Flight from a Peace Officer

Stewart has not yet been arrested and remains at large. A warrant has been issued for his arrest.

The RCMP is asking anyone who knows of his whereabouts to not approach him, and contact the detachment at 952-1111.

The previous suspect, Nathan Francis, appeared before a Justice of the Peace on October 18th. He has been released on conditions to not return to Fort McPherson, and is awaiting a further court appearance on November 26th.
