Tuesday, June 28, 2022 - Manitoba RCMP have arrested one man and continue to search for a second suspect in a Winnipegosis stabbing.
On June 25, 2022, at approximately 5:15 am, Winnipegosis RCMP received a report of a double stabbing in Camperville, Manitoba. When officers arrived, two males were lying on the ground in need of medical attention. A 26-year-old male was transported to Winnipeg hospital with life-threatening injuries, where he remains in critical condition. A 21-year-old male was transported to local hospital, where he remains in stable condition.
Initial investigation has determined that a fight broke out between two groups of people in front of a residence. It appears to have started as a robbery of one female walking on the street. Other individuals became aware of this and arrived at the location, where the fight ensued.
