A 17-year-old girl is in custody following an attack on Roslyn Road. 

Winnipeg police say that at around midnight on Monday, a woman was walking home from work when she was jumped from behind and pushed to the ground. The suspect stabbed and robbed the woman of her cell phone.

During the attack, the victim was able to grab the knife from the suspect and hold on to it, while the assault continued. 

Bystanders intervened and called 911, and the suspects fled the scene. 

The Winnipeg Police Service says that a missing 17-year-old has been safely located.

The girl was last seen on June 21, 2025, at 1:44 a.m. at her home located in the RM of De Salaberry.

Police had sent out a missing persons notice on June 24 and then sent out a second notice on Wednesday, June 25, saying she had been safely located.

The Manitoba government is moving closer to changing a highway intersection where a bus crash killed 17 people, but there is controversy over the plan.

The province is holding an open house tonight in Carberry, west of Winnipeg, not far from where a minibus carrying 24 seniors tried to cross the Trans-Canada Highway and was struck by a semi-trailer in 2023.

The province has discussed three options: widening the median, turning the intersection into a roundabout, or banning left turns onto the highway, which would force people to turn right before making a U-turn.

May inflation figures showed marginal improvements in some of the Bank of Canada's closely watched price figures — a step in the right direction, some economists say, but likely not enough to convince the central bank to cut interest rates.

The annual pace of inflation held steady at 1.7 per cent last month as cooling shelter costs helped tame price pressures, Statistics Canada said Tuesday.

The Assiniboine Park Zoo is mourning the loss of one of its white-handed gibbons. 

On Tuesday, the zoo announced that four-year-old Merrick passed suddenly.

"Merrick was a brave and adventurous gibbon. He was the typical middle child – a rowdy, handful little brother to Salju, and an amazing big brother to Maavi," said the zoo. "He was very attentive when Maavi was born and loved taking her on adventures around the habitat. While mom Maya was always close by, he didn’t always want to give Maavi back!"

The filming is underway for The Chosen Season 6, which means they're stepping into the crucifixion story. 

The film and cast for the TV series depicting the life of Jesus and his followers are currently in Italy. 

"I'm filming and I've got some pretty intense crucifixion stuff this week, including mostly night shooting," says Director Dallas Jenkins on social media. "So it's going to be an intense week, very difficult. So please keep us in mind and in your prayers for that."

The Liberal government will table a bill this fall introducing stricter bail conditions and sentencing for some crimes, particularly those involving organized crime, human trafficking, home invasion and car theft, Justice Minister Sean Fraser said in an interview.

"It's perhaps obvious, given the tenor around the criminal justice system, that reforms are in order," Fraser told The Canadian Press.
