A Winnipeg man has been charged with carrying a concealed weapon after he was seen at a restaurant with a replica gun.

Police were sent to the area of the 1900 block of Main Street at 11:45 a.m. Monday and arrested a man with an unloaded airsoft gun a short distance away.

Officers learned a man had been loitering at a restaurant when he was approached by staff members and asked to leave. A staff member reportedly saw a gun inside the suspect’s jacket and called police, and the suspect left.

The 27-year-old man arrested was released from police custody.
