Manitoba RCMP have released the names of four men who face numerous charges after an RCMP officer was shot in Onanole, Man. Wednesday.
Cpl. Graeme Kingdon, 42, was in front of a home to check out a break-and-enter call Wednesday night when gunfire rang out. Kingdon was transferred to HSC in Winnipeg and the suspects fled, with three caught the next morning and the fourth apprehended in a dramatic standoff in Neepawa later that day.
“We are pleased to report that Cpl. Kingdon is doing well,” said RCMP in a statement.
