Manitoba RCMP say they apprehended a man who was wanted on a pair of warrants last week.
Police said they searched a home on 10th Street Northwest in Portage la Prairie Oct. 13 and arrested the suspect as he tried to escape out a window.
The 25-year-old was wanted on a Canada-wide warrant for breach of statutory release, as well as a second warrant in Winnipeg for being unlawfully at large.
During a search, police said they turned up 20 grams of meth, 65 grams of fentanyl and drug paraphernalia, as well as a large amount of cash and several air guns and ammunition.
The man now faces nine charges, including two counts each of possession for the purpose of trafficking, possessing a weapon for a dangerous purpose and possessing weapons contrary to an order. He’s also been charged with identity fraud, possessing property obtained by crime and possessing a prohibited weapon when knowing possession was unauthorized.
He remains in custody.
