Winnipeg police are investigating a “serious incident” at Assiniboine Park.

Winnipeg police Const. Rob Carver said Saturday the force was contacted about the incident at approximately 3:30 a.m.

He wouldn’t elaborate on the nature of the incident, only to say there is no risk to the public and more information will be released at a later time.

A Global News reporter at the scene shortly after noon could see at least three police cruisers and a forensics van parked on a road within the park, a section of which was surrounded by police tape.
