Winnipeg police say two 17-year-old males are in custody following four separate shooting incidents in the downtown area over a two-day period.

According to the Winnipeg Police Service, officers responded to four incidents involving gunfire between May 12 and May 13 in the downtown core.

Police say the first three incidents took place on May 12 between approximately 4 a.m. and 8:45 a.m.

Investigators say at 4:00 AM 9mm rounds were fired toward a residence in the 200 block of Beverly Street, with one bullet entering the home and becoming lodged in a kitchen wall. No injuries were reported.

Later that morning, at 4:26 AM, additional shots were fired into the air in the 500 block of Agnes Street, and at 8:45 AM at the 300 block of Toronto Street. Shell casings were recovered at all three scenes.

A fourth incident was reported shortly after 1:20 a.m. on May 13 in the 400 block of Toronto Street, where police say several rounds were again fired into the air.

Responding officers located and arrested two masked youths nearby. Police say they also seized a Taurus G3 9mm handgun, a 15-round magazine, crack cocaine, and approximately $3,800 in cash.

The investigation involved Central and North District General Patrol officers, along with the Drone Unit, Tactical Support Team, K9 Unit, and Air1.

Both 17-year-old suspects are facing multiple firearm, weapons, and drug trafficking-related charges, including reckless discharge of a firearm, possession of a loaded prohibited or restricted firearm, and disguise with intent.

No injuries were reported; however, while searching for the armed suspects, responding officers encountered a youth carrying a water gun who was participating in the “Senior Assassin” game, a situation that presented obvious safety concerns.

One of the youths is also facing several allegations related to breaching court-ordered conditions.

Police say the investigation remains ongoing.
