Meadow Lake RCMP  have laid charges in connection to multiple investigations that started with a report of assault on August 31.  Miles Lasas, 40 years old, of Waterhen Lake First Nation is facing a variety of weapons and drug charges as well as two counts of possession of property obtained by crime over $5,000.

In connection to that initial assault investigation, at the beginning of September, RCMP executed search warrants at a home on Waterhen Lake First Nation and at a cabin at Redmond Lake.  That’s when, RCMP say, officers located and seized approximately 2.4 kilogram of cocaine and trafficking paraphernalia at the residence. They also located and seized a number of items including firearms, ammunition, a Seadoo, laptops and a snowmobile trailer.

At the Redmond Lake cabin, officers then located and seized a number of items, including a Bobcat, two Seadoos, a trailer and an ATV. The items had been reported as stolen in the past two years from various areas in central/northern Saskatchewan.

Miles Lasas now faces additional charges: four more counts of possession of property obtained by crime more than $5,000 and one count of possession of property obtained by crime less than $5,000.  Lasas was in court on Monday to face the latest charges.
