After two court dates in Calgary Provincial Court, July 15 and 17, Anthony John Allen will be back on July 23 for election and plea.
Allen, 50, is facing firearms charges stemming from two separate incidents in March.

On March 23, Allen entered a Calgary treatment facility and allegedly showed firearms to a person he was familiar with. He then put them away and left a short time later.

On March 24, Allen entered a Cochrane area Alcoholic Anonymous (AA) meeting, allegedly showing members two firearms.
The weapons were taken by AA members and turned over to police.

Allen is facing several charges from both incidents, including two counts of pointing a firearm and two counts of carrying a concealed weapon.
