A teenage boy has been charged in an early morning New Year’s Day shooting that injured two teenage girls in Moose Lake, Man.
Police were called to reports of a shooting on Sesame Street in the community, roughly 340 km northwest of Winnipeg, at around 5:50 a.m. Sunday.
Investigators say three teens had been walking down the street when a male suspect shot at them.

A 15-year-old boy is facing a number of charges, including two counts of discharging a firearm with intent and two counts of assault causing bodily harm.
The accused remains in police custody and Moose Lake RCMP continues to investigate.
