Calgary — It appears the Calgary man who suffered a gunshot wound in February 2018 when a rancher near Okotoks fired a warning shot at trespassers has found himself on the wrong side of the law once again.
Warrants have been issued for the arrest of 43-year-old Ryan Randy Watson on charges of:
- Possession of stolen property
- Possession of a controlled substance
- Failing to attend court
The wanted man is described as:
- Approximately 170 cm (5-7) tall
- Having brown hair and blue eyes
- Having a large surgery scar on his right forearm (the result of the gunshot wound)
Anyone with information regarding Watson's current whereabouts is asked to contact the Calgary Police Service at 403-266-1234 or anonymous tips may be submitted to Crime Stoppers.
Watson had attempted to sue Edouard 'Eddie' Maurice, the rancher who shot him during a suspected vehicle prowling on Maurice's property, for $100,000 in compensation for the "severe damages and disability" he suffered as a result of the shooting. The lawsuit was dismissed earlier this month.
