Saskatchewan RCMP have arrested two suspects in a deadly February shooting that left four people dead on Carry the Kettle Nakoda Nation. 

Darrius Racette, 18, faces four counts of first-degree murder, while an unnamed male youth has been arrested and is expected to be charged this week, according to the RCMP.

Officers found the victims in a home on the reserve, 80 kilometres east of Regina, after responding to a call around 11:15 am CST on February 4.

The deceased were identified as Tracey Hotomani, 34, and Terry Jack, 51, both from Carry the Kettle as well as Shauna Fay, 47, from Indian Head, and Sheldon Quewezance, 44, from Zagime Anishinabek.

RCMP arrested Racette in Yorkton and the youth on the reserve on February 18. 

Investigators believe the home was targeted. 

All four victims died from firearm injuries.  

Inspector Ashley St. Germaine clarified a separate February 4 incident involving a man pointing a gun in Zagime Anishinabek is unrelated and Keagan Panipekeesick, 29, was arrested in that case.
