Just after midnight on Saturday, Pierceland RCMP conducted a proactive curfew check on a man with court-ordered conditions at a home on Big Island Lake Cree Territory and when officers arrived, officers report that they heard a female calling for help. An injured female was found inside the home and was transported to hospital with injuries described as serious. Police were told she had been held against her will and assaulted.
A 30 year old man at the home was arrested. The charges for Ray Kahpoonapit from Big Island Lake Cree Territory include unlawful confinement, aggravated assault, uttering threats and failing to comply with a release order condition. His first court appearance in Meadow Lake was Monday.
