Mounties are laying charges after a home invasion in Saddle Lake saw gunshots ring out.

It happened on the evening of January 11th. Mounties from St. Paul say they were called out to a home after a firearms complaint.

37-year-old Byron Crane now faces charges including breaking and entering with intent. Mounties also charged 43-year-old Lousie Whiskeyjack and 21-year-old Jenny Badger with offences including possession of property obtained by crime over $5000 in relation to the case.

Mounties say they are still investigating.
