Early Sunday morning,  The Pas RCMP responded to a report of shots fired at a residence on Settee Avenue.

When officers arrived on scene, they found two males in the basement of the home with  one suffering from a serious gunshot wound.

 Police administered critical first aid to the victim until EMS arrived. The other male was arrested at the scene without incident.

The 16-year-old victim was transported to hospital in critical condition, and later transported to Winnipeg where his condition has since been upgraded to stable.

The victim and suspect were known to each other, and there is no threat to the community.

RCMP have remanded and charged Jaxon Mayer, 24, from The Pas with Attempted Murder and numerous weapons offenses.

The Pas RCMP and Forensic Identification Services continue to investigate.
