Harbour Grace RCMP charges two men in violent incident

The RCMP have arrested two men in connection with an incident involving confinement, assault and threats this past weekend.

Just before midnight on Saturday, May 18 Harbour Grace RCMP received a report of a male in his twenties being forcibly taken from a residence in Carbonear by two other males. The three are known to each other.

The victim was taken to a location in Carbonear against his will, where he was assaulted and threatened. After some time, he was able to escape and report the incident to police.

Two suspects were identified and believed to have left the scene in a Black GMC pickup truck.

Early Sunday morning, the described truck was located and a search warrant was obtained to search the truck. James Snow and Brady Parsons were subsequently arrested and have since been charged.

James Snow has been released from custody until his next court appearance and Brady Parsons remains in police custody pending a court appearance scheduled for today.
