What it's like seeing your carjacker shoot himself in the leg with a shotgun while going 140 km/h
 [CBC.CA] Then the man wanted to take over driving. They argued about it, but he had a shotgun so he got the wheel."I know he wasn't much of a driver ... I don't know if he's ever driven before because he was all over the road, but he's also doing 145, 150 kilometres per hour." And then clunk. And boom. "The shotgun went off in the cab," Gary said. "Well, it was deafening, for one thing, and I could see all the pellets and sparks coming out the barrel and everything else. And then he started saying, still driving that fast, 'Oh, oh, this isn't good, this isn't good.'" They wrestled for the wheel and the gearshift, the carjacker trying to cram it into park. Gary got it into neutral and they coasted to the side of the highway. By now, the man was starting to lose consciousness, muttering, the shotgun loose on the floor. The truck rolled to a stop. They were just outside Borden, about 50 kilometres northwest of Saskatoon. 'BLOOD EVERYWHERE' Gary said he jumped out of the truck, raced around to the driver's side and popped open the door. "I looked down on the floor and I could see blood everywhere, and the gun was still laying there," he said. He grabbed the shotgun, went around to the back of the truck and tossed it into the darkness. Then he went back to the driver's side and took a good look at the man slumped behind the wheel. "So I grabbed him ‐ I wasn't rough with him ‐ drug him out to the back of the truck and laid him on the ground very nicely." Gary said he retrieved one of the man's shoes and a spare hoodie from the truck and laid both on the road near him. Then he retrieved his cellphone from the man's pocket, drove across the divided highway and parked. He put on his flashers and called the police. SUSPECT STILL IN HOSPITAL RCMP have charged 31-year-old Marty Chamakese with eight firearm-related offences, including kidnapping with a firearm, extortion with a firearm, pointing a firearm and possession for a dangerous purpose. Chamakese is at Royal University Hospital, recovering from injury under the watch of guards. He has been charged but has not yet appeared in court. He declined a request from CBC News for an interview. Posted by: Fred 2018-11-21 |
