RCMP charged two men from Norway House, Man., with criminal code charges after a firearm was pointed at someone.

Wednesday afternoon, police said the 30- and 27-year-old suspects were charged with pointing a firearm, uttering threats, and resisting arrest.

The pair are scheduled to appear in court later Thursday, Mounties said.

RCMP said someone was pointing a firearm at someone in the community, but when police arrived, the suspect had barricaded himself in a home with two others, and refused to exit.

Mounties said a woman was released without charges.

The investigation continues.
