REGINA — The man charged with manslaughter for the shooting death of a woman near Weyburn earlier this year was back in court on Nov. 4.
Forty-two-year-old Chris Fahlman of Regina made a brief appearance in Regina Provincial Court by video. He was remanded into custody and his matter was adjourned for a show-cause hearing Nov. 6 in Regina to determine if he will receive bail.
He is charged in connection with the death of 44-year-old Tanya Myers near Weyburn in September. Myers was a passenger in one of two vehicles struck by bullets while travelling on Highway 39 near Weyburn on Sept. 12.
The RCMP says Fahlman is charged with one count each of manslaughter with a firearm, careless use of a firearm, carrying a weapon for the purpose of committing an offence, and occupying a motor vehicle knowing there is a firearm inside.
He appeared in Regina Provincial Court twice on Nov. 3, once each in the morning and afternoon.
The RCMP says Fahlman and Myers were not known to each other. The RCMP did not divulge where the shots came from for protecting the court process.
