Armed man made threats: police

A man has been charged with uttering threats and multiple gun offences after entering a home in Crane River First Nation last month.

Ste. Rose du Lac RCMP received a report at 5:30 p.m. on June 28 that an armed man entered a house in the community and was threatening the father of someone who lived there.

The man eventually left the home in an older red SUV.

As officers were investigating, they were told the suspect had gone to a different home. They spotted the red SUV and saw the suspect enter.

RCMP surrounded the home and ordered the man to surrender. When he didn’t, officers called for backup.

The man, 18, left the house at 11:20 p.m. without incident. Multiple weapons were seized, police said. He was charged with seven offences, including uttering threats and unauthorized possession of a firearm.
