Mounties in Whitecourt are seeking a man wanted in connection with the aggravated assault of two Medicine Hat residents.

A release from the RCMP says that at about 12:45 a.m. on April 16 they were called to a hotel on Highway 43 where two people were “in need of emergency medical assistance for injuries of a suspicious nature.”

A 46-year-old female and a 39-year-old male, from Medicine Hat were taken to hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.

RCMP obtained a warrant for the arrest of Telford Randall Howe on charges of aggravated assault, assault with a weapon and others.

The release was distributed by RCMP this week after Howe, also known as “Gremlin” or “G,” was identified as a person of interest in a suspicious death in Grande Prairie.
