WINNIPEG — A Winnipeg Pot shop is no longer open for business after police raided the downtown business Tuesday morning. Sources tell Global News officers arrived around 11:30am with a warrant before arresting the owner of Your Medical Cannabis Headquarters on Main St.

Police taped off the shop and were seen going in and out of the store after owner Glenn Price, was taken away.

Price temporarily closed his store last month, after officers warned him to stop selling marijuana or he’d be arrested. He re-opened a few days later.

Price insists he’s preventing users of medical marijuana from buying off the streets. Police say he’s not a licensed producer.

Police were not immediately available for comment on what charges, if any, are being laid.
