No one hurt after shots fired into Pangnirtung, Nunavut, home filled with people, RCMP say
Children were inside at the time, police say
No one was hurt after shots were fired into a home in Pangnirtung, Nunavut, while residents, including children, were inside.
It happened around 12:15 on Sunday morning, according to RCMP.
Police found three holes in a living room window and damage to the ceiling inside when they responded to a call.
Three men, ages 19, 20 and 23, are facing charges related to recklessly discharging firearms, attempted robbery and using a firearm while committing an offence. One faces another charge for breaching probation.
Police say it's fortunate nobody was seriously hurt.
"The discharge of a firearm in a careless manner can have disastrous consequences especially when it involves a dwelling house with occupants inside," the press release reads.
All three men are being held on remand until their next court appearance on May 2.
