RCMP in Neepawa, Man., are looking for a pair of suspects captured on video surveillance during a home invasion on a rural property early Thursday morning.
Officers were called to the scene in the RM of Glenella-Lansdowne just after 1 a.m., where they learned two masked suspects forced their way into a home, before being confronted by the armed homeowner and fleeing.
On their way out, police said, the suspects allegedly fired a gun into the side of the home, which caused minor damage, although no one was hurt.

“This is a very concerning incident,” RCMP Staff Sgt. Andrew Cowan said Friday.
“Our officers are working to identify the suspects so that they can be arrested and charged for this violent crime.”
Cowan asked other area residents to stay vigilant and call 911 if they see any suspicious activity.
