A search of a residence on the Sandy Bay First Nation by RCMP and the Manitoba First Nations Police Service (MFNPS) resulted in several arrests, and the seizure of various weapons, and drugs.

In the early morning hours on Saturday, August 15, officers executed a search warrant at a residence on the Sandy Bay First Nation.

This led to the recovery of a loaded shotgun with a large amount of shotgun ammunition, two pellet guns, a ballistic vest, bear spray, and a collapsable baton.

MFNPS also say officers recovered an unspecified amount of drugs believed to be crystal methamphetamine, and $1,020 in cash.

Police located 7 people in the residence, who were arrested and held in custody. One male suspect was not located at the residence and there is a warrant out for his arrest.
