Town locked down, swat involved. Rumor is person going door to door in the hotel with a gun. Rumor only, very few facts known.

This is posted on FB, from a friend there....

There's a shooting at the red rest. Apparently the guy might have hostages I guess and the cops have been shot at to. It's all barricaded so no one can get through Main Street.

I just heard back from Shan, and she has said pretty much the same as "sweld". Lots of rumours, floating around.
Her take is...... that there was a brinks truck stolen, and held up at the hotel. But she is uncertain about the whole true story too.

I am sure that everyone has read or seen the news by now.

22 year old male was arrested, facing numerous charges. he is the suspect for shooting at police in Edmonton on Sunday during a traffic check stop. Edmonton Police was in Redwater, following up on a tip that he was here.
