A 21-year-old man is behind bars after a bizarre incident in Norway House Sunday morning.
RCMP in the northern Manitoba community said they were called around 7:30 a.m. to a local home, where they heard screaming and calls for help.
They say they found a locked shed with three women — 24, 28 and 35 years old — and a 49-year-old man inside, all of whom had apparently been bear sprayed.
Police said it appears that the victims were in the shed when the suspect locked them inside, and then sprayed bear spray through a window.
