A 28-year-old Barrie man faces several charges following a shooting early Saturday morning at a north-end complex.
City police were called to 314 Georgian Dr., known as Foundry Georgian, shortly before 4 a.m. on July 23 for a suspected shooting.
Police say the victim, a 21-year-old Barrie man, was airlifted to a Toronto-area trauma centre with "serious injuries." Police say the victim's wounds are not believed to be life-threatening.
Later that afternoon, at approximately 5:30 p.m., Barrie police executed a warrant at a Georgian Drive address and one person was taken into custody.
A 28-year-old Barrie man has been charged with aggravated assault, assault with a weapon, and numerous charges related to unauthorized possession of a firearm. He was held pending a bail hearing.
A Barrie police official declined to release the name of the accused because the investigation is ongoing.
Police say they are not searching for any additional suspects.
The Foundry Georgian, located near Georgian College, includes five buildings, each containing several units with as many as five people living in them. While many students live there, Georgian College has no official affiliation with the Foundry. City police have been called there numerous times during the last year.
