A southern Alberta man who shot at suspected thieves on his rural property is being sued by one of the people.
A statement of claim says Ryan Watson entered Edouard Maurice’s property near Okotoks, south of Calgary, on Feb. 25, 2018.
It says that when he and an accomplice were discovered, Maurice fired a warning shot that struck Watson’s arm.
“Without warning, the defendant attempted to scare the said plaintiff by shooting a .22 calibre rifle in his direction, but negligently hit the plaintiff in the right forearm, causing severe damages and disability,” reads the statement.
It says Watson required surgery, which included putting a metal plate in his arm, and that he has pain and discomfort in his shoulders, head, neck and back. He also suffers from severe fatigue, insomnia, anxiety and post-traumatic stress disorder, the document says.
The suit alleges Maurice was negligent for firing a gun without consideration for others in the area and for failing to exhaust reasonable and less violent options, including calling police or shouting a warning.
Watson is seeking damages for pain and suffering and for loss of income."
