NORTH BATTLEFORD – A Moosomin First Nation man pleaded guilty Wednesday to theft of a truck and resisting arrest in two separate incidents.
Grant Swifwolfe, 27, and Andy Swifwolfe were arrested in June after Battlefords RCMP got a call that two men who were wanted on warrants were seen on Saulteaux First Nation.
Police located the two men on a grid road and ordered them to stop saying they were under arrest but they fled on foot. Grant Swiftwolfe was apprehended and Andy Swiftwolfe was arrested the next day after they got another call saying that he was back on Saulteaux First Nation.
Grant Swiftwolfe pleaded guilty in North Battleford Provincial Court July 13 to resisting arrest in the June incident and theft of a truck in a previous incident. The weapons charge was withdrawn.
He will be sentenced on Aug. 3.
Earlier this month Andy Swiftwolfe was sentenced to 90 days in jail after he pleaded guilty to flight from police, failing to comply with a release order, theft of $5,000, break and enter, mischief, and two counts of resisting arrest.
