Stolen windmill in rural Manitoba has RCMP heads spinning

CBC16-07-2025
The RCMP are fanning out in their search for a stolen 25-foot-tall windmill and hoping the public can provide some tips.
The turbine was taken sometime from July 4-6 from a property in the rural municipality of Grey, south of Portage la Prairie.
"Due to the nature of the sheer size of the stolen property, RCMP believe someone in the area may have seen something," a news release said on Wednesday.
The windmill is 7.6 metres tall with two-metre blades and is silver in colour.
Anyone with information is asked to please call the RCMP at 204-745-6760.

Man dead after personal watercraft incident on Squamish River, RCMP say

The Squamish River is seen in this file photo. (CTV News) A man is dead after an incident on the Squamish River Friday afternoon, according to local police. Paramedics and search and rescue crews were called to the confluence of the Squamish and Cheakamus rivers west of Squamish airport around 1:45 p.m. for a report that a man had been located unresponsive, Squamish RCMP said in a news release. Responders attempted life-saving measures, but the man did not survive. 'Based on the information received, two individuals were operating personal watercrafts on the river when they became separated,' the RCMP release reads. The surviving rider found the man unresponsive, with his personal floatation device keeping him afloat, police said. Mounties said they'll be working with the B.C. Coroners Service to determine the circumstances of the death, but 'initial information' leads them to believe the death was 'a medical event' and not a result of foul play.
