The case against four individuals charged with drug and weapon offences will return to North Battleford Provincial Court Friday, July 20.

The four facing charges, Alton Mosquito, Matthew Greer, Chelsa Pritchard and Candace Worden, appeared before Judge Lorna Dyck Tuesday.

Wednesday, Dyck agreed to the release of Greer and Pritchard subject to a number of conditions.

Mosquito and Worden remain in custody, however, pending bail hearings at the next court date on July 20. All four are due back in court on that day.

The charges include possession of a weapon, carrying a concealed weapon, possession of a firearm while not holding a license and possessing a loaded prohibited firearm. Charges were also laid for possession of drugs for the purpose of trafficking.

The charges stem from Saturday when Battlefords RCMP responded to a weapons complaint at a residence in the 400 block of 33rd Street in Battleford. The four individuals were arrested and a quantity of cash was also seized.
