Owen Sound police picked up a pair of suspects wanted for a shooting incident Wednesday in Whitby.
A number of police units were involved in the arrest of the wanted suspects at two Owen Sound locations yesterday, including a hotel.
The male and female suspects were taken into custody without incident. Police executed search warrants which resulted in the seizure of a firearm, ammunition and drugs.
