A 59-year-old man is dead after a boat capsized on Hughes Lake in northern Manitoba Wednesday night.

Manitoba RCMP are searching for a suspect in connection with over $20,000 in stolen property that was recovered from a storage locker.

A Manitoba farmer says he's looking at thousands of dollars in damage after someone appears to have driven a vehicle through his canola field over the long weekend.

Police said the man was caught travelling 52 km/h over the speed limit in the Rural Municipality of North Cypress-Langford, which is northeast of Brandon.

Brandon RCMP said they were called to a collision involving a vehicle and a pedestrian around 4:15 a.m., about 2 km west of the city on Highway 1.

The body of a man found in late June near Baker Street in Portage la Prairie, Man., has been identified.

According to police, a vehicle drove up to a group of people and a man fired paintballs at people, vehicles and a building before taking off.

A 24-year-old man is in custody facing a long list of drug and weapons charges after an arrest by RCMP in the Rural Municipality of Dauphin on July 2.

Manitoba RCMP say dangerous driving offences are up significantly this year, in part due to people taking advantage of quieter roads during the pandemic.

Police said the inflatable raft, which was carrying eight people, floated away at St. Ambroise Beach around 3 p.m.
