  "account": "A Winnipeg man who shot a rival gang member and a 11-year-old bystander at the Red River Exhibition over four years ago has been returned to prison. Mocree Chuck Scatch-Dubour, now in his early 20s, was released from prison in April after serving a 5.5-year federal sentence for the 2022 shooting. He was sentenced in 2023 for gun discharge with intent to wound, aggravated assault, and possessing a restricted firearm. Statutory release, which typically occurs after two-thirds of a federal sentence, was revoked after he illegally left his halfway house in June. The Parole Board of Canada cited his continued pro-criminal attitudes, lack of future planning, and focus on appearance and relationships as reasons for the revocation. Scatch-Dubour, who has ADHD, fetal alcohol spectrum disorder, reactive attachment disorder, depression, and PTSD, returned to the halfway house smelling of alcohol and appearing disoriented. He was arrested in another province on July 14 after leaving the halfway house. He claimed he had been celebrating his birthday with friends when he drank too much and decided to flee after becoming paranoid about being sent back to prison. Scatch-Dubour has been transferred to another federal prison for safety reasons.",
