Police have made an arrest in connection to a shooting on Sandy Bay First Nation last month, but two other suspects remain on the loose.
On Jan. 3, officers were called to a home on Ridge Road North in Sandy Bay, where police say multiple suspects entered the home and assaulted a male victim, who was airlifted to hospital for treatment.
One of the suspects, 36-year-old Gregory James Lee Spence, was arrested in Winnipeg Tuesday in a drug trafficking incident, the Manitoba First Nations Police Service said.
Spence faces a number of firearm and assault charges.
MFNPS said the two additional suspects, 28-year-old Keith Douglas Racette and 31-year-old Jesse Myles St. Paul, remain at large and are considered to be armed and dangerous.
