A man who was about to be transferred from Lynn Lake to the Leaf Rapids Detachment is on the lam.
Officers say 46-year-old Daryle Richard Johnson was cuffed, but able to get away from law enforcement, fleeing into a nearby forest and losing them in the thick woods.
Johnson is 5’9″, 180l bs with short black hair and brown eyes. He was last seen wearing black sweatpants and a burgundy sweater.
Police consider Johnson armed and dangerous and should not be approached.
Anyone with any information is asked to call the Lynn Lake RCMP at (204) 356-2494 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.
