Charges have been laid against a Kamloops man accused in a drug-related weekend shooting in a downtown apartment building that sent a man to hospital with a gunshot wound to his leg.
Police were called to the building at 110 Columbia St. for a report of a shooting on Dec. 29.
Brandon Dale Fiddick, 25, was arrested on New Year’s Eve and remains behind bars facing charges of aggravated assault and possession of a firearm.
“The use or display of illegal firearms by people engaged in crime is treated as a top priority for enforcement in Kamloops,” RCMP Staff Sgt. Simon Pillay said.
Investigators believe the shooting was related to the drug trade.
Fiddick is expected to appear in Kamloops provincial court for a bail hearing on Wednesday.
