For the second time in two weeks, Mounties recovered tens of thousands of dollars worth of stolen property in the RM of Gimli.
Police said on Sept. 29, as a result of an ongoing investigation, authorities, alongside the Gimli RCMP, executed a search warrant at a property in the rural municipality.
The search recovered a stolen snowmobile, multiple trailers, construction equipment, a camper, firearms, cash, cocaine and other controlled substances, officers said.
Just like the search two weeks prior, RCMP said some of the recovered property was reported stolen from several places across southern Manitoba.
