News release

On March 17, 2020, at approximately 3:05 am, RCMP responded to a report of a break and enter in progress at a residence located on Hapnot Street in Flin Flon.

Officers attended the residence and were advised that two males, one armed with a firearm and one with a hockey stick, as well as one female had entered the home. After several minutes inside, the suspects exited the residence with a television and left the scene in a dark colored vehicle.

Patrols were made in the area and the suspect vehicle was later located. At approximately 5:50 am, one of the suspects was seen walking down Hapnot Street and was arrested without incident.

A search warrant was prepared and executed at a residence located on Ross Street and once inside, officers located and arrested the two remaining suspects. A search of the residence produced a BB gun, an airsoft gun and a large sum of Canadian currency.

Charges will be laid against a 37-year-old female, a 19-year-old male, both from Flin Flon, and a 21-year-old male, from Sherridon. All three remain in police custody at this time.

RCMP would like to thank the residents in the immediate area for their patience and cooperation while this incident unfolded.

Flin Flon RCMP continue to investigate.
