A Kamloops man accused of engaging police in multiple shootouts before holing up in his parents’ home for 17 hours in October has had his bail hearing delayed by a week.
Shane Caron had been slated to apply for bail in Kamloops provincial court on Monday, but that hearing is now expected to take place on Dec. 11.
The 35-year-old is facing a dozen charges — including four counts of attempted murder for allegedly opening fire on RCMP officers — stemming from the events of Oct. 27.
On that morning, police have said, Caron is alleged to have assaulted his ex-girlfriend in a North Shore home before emerging from that house armed with a rifle and fleeing in a pickup truck.
Police followed and Caron is alleged to have opened fire on Mounties on four separate occasions before entering his parents’ home at the G&M Trailer Court on the Tk’emlups Indian Band reserve off Highway 5 North.
He was arrested at 4 a.m. the following day after hours of negotiations with police.
