Two of five suspects in February arrests return to court in early May

FORT ST. JOHN, B.C. — A pair of people arrested following a Fort St. John RCMP operation to recover a truck reported stolen have their next court hearing scheduled for next week.

Jakob Sherwood and Barbara Reno were among five people arrested in February as part of the operation.

After several weeks of proceedings, Sherwood still faces charges of robbery, aggravated assault and possession of stolen property, while Reno has been charged with uttering threats to cause death or bodily harm and possession of stolen property.

After hearings on Monday, April 28th, Sherwood and Reno have new hearings scheduled for Monday, May 5th.

Two other people arrested as part of that February operation are still facing charges: Gavin Davis, who’s next hearing is scheduled for Thursday, May 1st; and Jack Capot Blanc, who is scheduled to return to court the day after Reno and Sherwood on May 6th.

All charges against the fifth person who was arrested have since been dropped.
