Woman, 8 kids held at gunpoint; RCMP searching for suspect
Manitoba RCMP has issued an arrest warrant after a woman and eight children were held at gunpoint at a home in Black River, Man., last week. The incident took place on the morning of May 23 on Mayaa Road in Black River, which is located about 138 kilometres northeast of Winnipeg. According to police, a woman and eight kids—ages six to 17 years old—were sleeping inside a home when two men kicked in the door and held them at gunpoint. Mounties allege the suspects also assaulted the woman by 'holding her by the neck.' Police said the suspects then went to another home on Mayaa Road, where they kicked in the door and shot twice through a door inside the house. The two men fled in a stolen car, which was later recovered by police. RCMP officers are now looking for Tyson Breland, 36, from Selkirk, Man. Police have issued an unendorsed warrant for his arrest and charged him with several offences, including nine counts of forcible confinement, two counts of breaking and entering a residence, assault by choking, and careless use of a firearm. Police warn that if you see Breland, you should not approach him, as he may be armed. Anyone with information about his whereabouts is asked to call RCMP at 204-367-8728 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.
