WINNIPEG, MB. — Three people are facing charges after a brazen and violent home invasion.
It happened Sunday around noon in the 1200-block of Alexander Avenue.
Winnipeg police say the trio entered a door and confronted two victims inside.
One was struck in the head while the suspects loaded up a bunch of electronics into the victim’s vehicle.
They then fled the scene.
Hit and Run
Two hours later the stolen vehicle hit another vehicle and fled.
It happened near a business in the 200-block of St. Mary’s Road.
Then around 5:15pm, a security guard at St. Vital Centre called police when he noticed the suspects fighting inside the vehicle in the mall’s parking lot.
Winnipeg police arrived and were able to block the stolen vehicle from leaving the parking lot.
All three were placed under arrest and a search of the vehicle revealed a small amount of meth.
