A Sicamous man is facing charges of sexual assault, unlawful confinement, as well as weapons-related charges following a recent police search of a Martin Street residence in Sicamous.
Quincy Jerrod Kazakoff, 40, is in police custody as a result of an RCMP investigation that began the weekend of May 18/19.
Sicamous RCMP Sgt. Dave Dubnyk says police executed a search of the residence on Tuesday, May 21.
“The search was done in conjunction with an investigation into a number of incidents which occurred over the previous weekend,” reports Dubnyk.
During the search, investigators found and seized a number of weapons including a compound bow, a crossbow, arrows and numerous knives.
Dubnyk says that as a result of “weekend incidents,” and the subsequent police investigation, Kazakoff was arrested and has since been charged with sexual assault with a weapon, unlawful confinement or imprisonment, assault with a weapon, possessing a weapon for a dangerous purpose and mischief under $5,000.
Kazakoff was scheduled to appear in Salmon Arm court earlier today, May 24, for an arraignment hearing.
