A 16-year-old girl has passed away after an officer-involved shooting at Lagimodiere Boulevard and Fermor Avenue in Winnipeg.
Yesterday at around 5:30 p.m., police were called about reports of a stolen car and they chased the vehicle to Lagimodiere Boulevard near Fermor Avenue.
While police were attempting to arrest people in the car, the 16-year-old was shot while others were taken into custody.
The girl was rushed to hospital in critical condition, where she succumbed to her injuries.
In another officer-involved shooting, less than 12 hours after the above incident, officers responded to a report of a man with a gun in the 300 block of Anderson Avenue. Someone inside the house was shot by police and was sent to the hospital and there was no word on their condition.
The investigation continues and there will be a press conference later today.
