On September 10, 2024, Hamiota RCMP, along with assistance from the Manitoba West District Crime Reduction Enforcement Support Team (CREST), received information that a 2024 Polaris Side-by-Side, reported stolen from a cottage out at Sandy Lake, may be at a residence located on Keeseekoowenin First Nation.
The investigation led to the execution of a search warrant at this property where officers recovered the stolen side-by-side with trailer.
Information obtained from this address led officers to another home located on Keeseekoowenin First Nation where stolen property was observed outside. A search of the property led to the additional recovery of four golf carts, two snowmobiles, two off-road vehicles, one trailer and six firearms.
A 25-year-old male, from Keeseekoowenin First Nation, was arrested at the second scene and later released for a court appearance scheduled for December 17, 2024, in Minnedosa Provincial Court.
RCMP continue to investigate.
