Gang Hit That Left One Dead | Edmonton News

Three years after Gabriel Dumont was fatally shot in an Edmonton apartment stairwell by members of the Redd Alert gang, one of the four accused, Dustin Couterielle-Hilton, has pleaded guilty to manslaughter with a firearm — down from first-degree murder. The gang believed Dumont had crossed them and planned to strip him of his status, leading to a coordinated attack where weapons were stashed nearby and shots fired from both a rifle and shotgun. Though it’s unclear who pulled the trigger, the court heard there was a shared intent to harm or kill. Couterielle-Hilton, now in custody, tried to sway a witness via a intercepted letter, and his sentencing is set for next month — with his defense seeking a Gladue report to consider his Indigenous background.
