A 17-year-old boy was sentenced to three years after pleading guilty to four counts of manslaughter in a quadruple homicide on Carry the Kettle Nakoda Nation.
The incident occurred in February 2025, when two men and two women were shot and killed in the southern Saskatchewan community.
The teen was originally charged with first-degree murder.
His identity remains protected under the Youth Criminal Justice Act.
He will now serve two years in custody followed by one year under community supervision, which is the maximum youth sentence.
The court heard that the violence began after a dispute at a home linked to drug activity.
The accused and others later obtained guns and returned to the scene, where the shootings took place.
Although the teen waited outside and fled when gunfire began, he was held responsible for providing the weapons and being involved.
Three other individuals were also arrested in connection with the killings.
