A Prince George man suspected of a violent home invasion is facing more charges.
In addition to a charge of break and enter laid against him last week, Dohn William Warren Schmidt, 34, now faces charges of unlawful confinement, assault with a weapon, unlawful storage of a firearm, unlawful possession of a firearm, knowingly possessing a firearm without a licence, possession of a weapon while prohibited and possession of stolen property over $5,000.
The charges largely stem from an alleged early-morning incident Aug. 24 at a South Ogilvie Street home, where police said a 62-year-old woman was found shaken but injured after two males entered the home through a window and "violently confined" her for about 10 minutes.
A large screen TV and large gun safe containing three handguns were taken from the residence and the suspects fled in the victim's vehicle, found Sept. 2 on Faulkner Crescent, according to RCMP.
Schmidt was arrested on Sept. 20 when RCMP executed a search warrant on a home in the 4200 block of Quentin Avenue and seized one of the allegedly stolen guns.
