was broadcast throughout Manitoba.<\/a><\/p>\nWinnipeg police said Sunday they’re both now facing several charges, including abduction of person under 14 years of age.<\/p>\n
The incident began at around 10 a.m., after a dispute between the child’s biological mother and the two suspects, police said. They said the mother was assaulted, and the child was abducted to the home.<\/p>\n
The release said the women took a taxi to the McPhillips Street and Logan Avenue area. A concerned citizen who saw the Amber Alert took the child away from the suspects and brought them to their vehicle for safety, waiting for police to arrive.<\/p>\n
Witnesses who saw the arrest unfold told CBC News Friday they saw first responders tending to the boy inside a Pizza Pizza restaurant near the intersection where he was found. Police said Sunday the two-year-old was taken to hospital with no injuries from the incident.<\/p>\n
Const. Stephen Spencer said in a news conference Friday the fact the child was found quickly shows how effective the Amber Alert system is.<\/p>\n
Police said they seized a personal amount of meth from one of the women. <\/p>\n
Both suspects have been charged with assault with weapon and possession of a weapon. The 30-year-old was also charged with fail to comply with probation order.<\/p>\n
The 25-year-old faces several additional charges: carrying concealed weapon, prohibited device or ammunition; allegation of non-compliance with conditional sentence order, and possession of a scheduled substance.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Listen to this article Estimated 2 minutes The audio version of this article is generated by AI-based technology.…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":507766,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[194296],"tags":[49,48,22073],"class_list":["post-507765","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-winnipeg","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-winnipeg"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/507765","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=507765"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/507765\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/507766"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=507765"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=507765"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=507765"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
