An individual charged in connection to an incident last June in North Battleford was sentenced Monday.
Darby Johnson has entered guilty pleas to three counts, which include pointing a firearm at three individuals contrary to the Criminal Code, possessing a firearm and committing mischief.
He has been sentenced to 15 months less his current remand time of 280 days, and also received a mandatory firearms prohibition. A DNA sample was also ordered.
Johnson is currently in custody and has another 170 days of incarceration left.
The other charges Johnson faced were withdrawn at the conclusion of sentencing.
His charges stem from a June 24, 2017, incident in North Battleford that resulted in a lengthy standoff with police at a residence on the 2000 block of 101st Street.
Both Johnson and co-accused Marty Moccasin gave themselves up following the standoff. A search warrant was executed at the residence and a long barrel firearm was located and seized during that search.
Charges against Moccasin were eventually stayed; according to the Crown submission Monday, it took some time to determine who was the instigator in this particular incident.
