News release

Update - All three suspects have been arrested. The RCMP thanks the public and the media for their assistance.


At approximately 11:45pm on February 17, 2023, Selkirk RCMP responded to a report that a male had been shot at a residence on Britannia Close.

Upon arrival, officers located a 28-year-old male outside of the residence who had been shot as well as an injured 26-year-old male who had been assaulted with an object. Both males were transported to hospital.
