One man has been charged after a report of shots being fired Saturday night at a residence in Swan River. 

RCMP in that community was alerted to the incident at around 9:30, and when they arrived they found gunshots in the front door, front window, and a wall in the home. 

Fortunately, nobody was injured.

The alleged suspect fled the scene on foot, but yesterday Mounties executed a search warrant on a home in Birch River where they located six firearms and a large amount of ammunition.

37-year-old David Gabriel of Birch River faces charges of Assault with a Weapon and numerous other firearms-related offences.
