Tofield RCMP rushed to help their fellow officers Feb. 7 after shootings left two Killam detachment members in-jured and another man dead on a rural farm site southeast of Sedgewick.

Const. Sheldon Shah and Const. Sydney Gaudette were shot when attempting to execute a search warrant for an illegal firearm at the home of Brad Clarke. Clarke died in the house after shots were fired, and his nephew, Sawyer Clarke Robison escaped. He was on the run until last Friday morning when he turned himself in after being charged with two counts of attempted murder.
