Judge found Paul Nicholas Russell guilty of reckless discharge of a firearm and five other charges.

A man who opened fire on the Vanderhoof RCMP detachment was found not guilty Tuesday of attempted murder but will face sentencing on a lesser charge of reckless discharge of a firearm.

In finding him guilty of reckless discharge, the judge noted Russell has a "long history with guns" and chose a busy time on a work day when he pulled up alongside the detachment shortly after midday and began firing off the first of at least 15 rounds from a hunting rifle. Russell's odd behaviour continued during the arrest and in the aftermath, the court had heard. However, Marzari found it "entirely speculative" that his mental health had "any effect or bearing" on his ability to understand the consequences of his actions.

The office manager had left for lunch before the shots first rang out. The bullet narrowly missed the commanding officer, Sgt. Kyle Ushock. The two bullets travelled over top of one of the chairs in the office and lodged in the metal shelving units above the desk, while debris from the cubicle lodged in the back wall of the next office over.
