CROSS LAKE – A 13-year-old boy is dead after a shooting in northern Manitoba, and police say another teen has been arrested in the case.
RCMP say officers from its detachment in Cross Lake responded to a report of a shooting at a home in Pimicikamak Cree Nation late Saturday afternoon.
Mounties say the officers were advised that a 13-year-old had been shot and was transported to the community’s nursing station, where he was pronounced dead.
Police have arrested a 17-year-old boy and seized a firearm.
