Some tense moments Thursday morning after a truck was reported stolen from a rest stop near the intersection of Highways 16 and 10.
Mounties say the truck was reportedly taken at gun-point around 5:30 Am, with four suspects getting into it and heading westbound.
Reports then came in of four suspicious people being seen in Strathclair, which led to police placing the Strathclair Community School in a hold and secure operation.
Mounties eventually arrested three of the suspects but needed assistance from Marook the Police dog in securing the final suspect, who initially fled the scene on foot and was eventually found hiding in a vehicle.
Marook also recovered a pair of firearms.
All four suspects remain in custody, and anyone with info on this incident is asked to call the Spruce Plains detachment at 204-476-7340 or Manitoba CrimeStoppers at 1-800-222-8477.
