A Winnipeg man is facing a number of firearm-related charges after a salesperson was threatened with a gun.
Police say a telecommunications salesperson knocked on the door of a house in the 400 block of Collegiate Street Friday around 8:30 p.m. and encountered an upset man.
The salesperson tried to leave but police say the suspect armed himself with a gun.
Police say the suspect got into a vehicle and followed the salesperson but he was eventually able to hide inside a home while police were called.
The K9 unit, tactical support team and general patrol officers went to the man’s house but it took them until 11:20 to get him safely into custody.
A search warrant of the house allowed police to find 12 firearms and ammunition.
