Tactical Support Team in demand Sunday
Uniform members with the assistance of the Tactical Support Team were investigating an incident at a home in East Kildonan this morning before rushing to another residence in the North End.
Police said they received information that firearms may be present inside the residence in the 500 block of Trent Avenue. Police investigated before the Tactical Support Team and several police cruisers sped from that home to another residence on Pritchard Avenue near Manitoba Avenue.
There are no reports of shots being fired and no reports of any serious injuries. No further information is available.

Firearms are present in my home, when do I get a visit from the tac team? Was there a crime here, or response on the possibility of firearms being present?

We need stiffer and "real" penalties for these type of infractions. We tie our Police Departments hands with paperwork that they're probably STILL doing, and the culprits are most likely getting ready to sit down and have dinner at home. What will it take to fix it, I don't know. But I do see that in countries where the penalties are severe, people don't risk the chance of being caught and just don't do some of the outright stupid things we see in this part of the world.
