Two adults and three youth, all from Surrey, British Columbia are facing 28 charges following a report of vehicle racing, and a male being threatened by another with a gun.
At approximately 10:30 p.m., May 3, 2022, Saskatoon Police were called to a parking lot in the 3500 block of 8th Street East in Saskatoon.
