Police recovered a stolen firearm and Malik Holloway was charged with a number of offences, including two counts of discharging a firearm with intent, two counts of pointing a firearm, break and enter with the intent to steal a firearm and possession of a prohibited firearm.

Holloway was also wanted by Calgary Police Service for unrelated firearm offences.
