Police are still looking for a man and a vehicle tied to an incident in which an RCMP officer was shot at on the side of a Saskatchewan highway.

Police reported that the officer stopped on Highway 11 near Osler around 4 a.m. on Oct. 27 after seeing a black Cadillac CTS sedan with no license plate parked on the side of the road.

When the officer activated their emergency lights, a suspect  reportedly got out of the Cadillac and shot at the officer.

RCMP on Monday released a composite sketch of the suspect, who was described as a black man, about six feet tall with high cheekbones and a thin build.
