The Neepawa RCMP is on the lookout for two suspects after a home invasion on Thursday.
At 1:05 a.m., officers responded to a home invasion on a rural property in the RM of Glenella-Lansdowne. Both suspects, wearing masks, forced their way into the home and were confronted by the armed homeowner.
The suspects fled the property, but first shot into the side of the home, causing minor damage. No one was hurt.
“This is a very concerning incident. Our officers are working to identify the suspects so that they can be arrested and charged with this violent crime. We urge all residents in the area to immediately call 911 if they see any suspicious activity on their property and are concerned for their safety,” said S/Sgt. Andrew Cowan, of the Spruce Plains RCMP.
It is believed to be a random incident. The two suspects fled the scene in a pickup truck described as a GMC with a white hood, white roof, and dark coloured sides. It's believed to have fled eastbound on Provincial Road 261.
