Man escapes Sask. RCMP custody
A young Saskatchewan man is at large after escaping from the Turnor Lake RCMP Detachment on Tuesday.
Gavin Montgrand, 19, escaped custody at about 1:20 p.m., police said.
Montgrande is from Turnor Lake, which is 400 km northwest of La Ronge, but may be in the Saskatoon or Prince Albert areas, police say.
A warrant has been issued for his arrest on a charge of escaping lawful custody.
Montgrand is described as an Indigenous man with a medium complexion and dark hair. He is about six feet tall and has a recent scar with stitches on the right side of his face above his cheekbone.
Montgrand was last seen wearing black jeans, a black sweater, black high top running shoes and a carrying a bag.
RCMP said they do not believe Montgrand poses a threat to the general public, but he should not be approached.
Anyone with information as to his whereabouts are asked to contact the Turnor Lake RCMP at 1-306-894-4420 or Crime stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.
