Ste. Rose RCMP have arrested three men in connection with multiple incidents.

On June 20, Ste. Rose du Lac RCMP received a report of an abandoned pickup truck located on PR 278, near Road 127N, in the RM of Alonsa.

The vehicle had been stolen on June 13 and was reportedly driving erratically in and around the Ebb and Flow First Nation earlier in the evening. Information was also received that the suspects may be armed.

Officers responded and while enroute, received another call stating that several men had exited from the vehicle and ran into the woods, heading towards the lake.

With the assistance of officers from Dauphin, Amaranth, Winnipegosis, Police Dog Services and RCMP Remotely Piloted Aircraft System, two suspects were tracked for nearly four kilometres by Police Service Dog Marook in the wooded area before being located and arrested without incident.

Later that morning, police received information that a third suspect, involved with the stolen vehicle earlier in the morning, was now walking along Kinosota Road.

Officers attended to the area and located the 28-year-old man who was arrested without incident, however, once taken into custody, began to utter threats towards the officers and damaged the police vehicle.

RCMP have charged Mathew Kakewash, 31, Shawn Francoeur, 26, and Brady McKay, 28, with numerous offences including uttering threats, possession of property obtained by crime, flight from police and operating a conveyance in a dangerous manner.

All three were remanded in custody.
