A 37-year-old Tisdale man who allegedly threatened to shoot his family made a court appearance in Melfort this morning.
David Guest was remanded into custody until his next appearance which will be Tuesday when a bail hearing will be held.
Guest is charged with uttering threats, assault with a weapon, unauthorized possession of a firearm, dangerous driving, and unauthorized possession of a prohibited weapon.
A release from RCMP say they received a call around 1 p.m Wednesday about an individual who was heading to the home in the Tisdale area to shoot his family.
Officers from the Tisdale detachment along with neighbouring detachments converged on the area and safely secured the family members before locating the suspect and taking him into custody without incident.
