"Shooting suspect from NB caught in Ontario"
RCMP have arrested four people now, and charged two so far, after a shooting last month. A man in Salisbury was taken to hospital with what was believed to be non-life-threatening injuries at the time.
This is the shooting that triggered the emergency broadcast alert/ Be On the Lookout message about the suspects.
Police have updated the case saying another suspect was arrested in Waterloo, Ontario.
Police are still looking for 18-year-old Olivia Cotton.

• Charlie from The Humanity Project is quoted in the article suggesting a possible way to reduce discarded needles is an incentive for returning needles... every turned-in needle could be worth 5 cents...
But that might not be practical, according to other people quoted.
This one's not solved yet... to be continued.
