Neepawa RCMP investigating home invasion - ask for public's and to call 911 if any suspicious activity seen

On June 19, 2025, at approximately 1:05 am, Neepawa RCMP responded to a report of a home invasion on a rural property located in the RM of Glenella-Lansdowne.

Officers were advised that two suspects, both wearing masks, forced their way into the home and were confronted by the home owner, who was armed.

As the two suspects immediately fled the property, they discharged a firearm into the side of the home, causing minor damage. No injuries were reported.

It is believed to be a random incident.

The two suspects, who were captured on video surveillance, fled the scene in a pickup truck described as a GMC with a white hood, white roof and dark colored sides. The truck is believed to have fled eastbound on Provincial Road 261.

“This is a very concerning incident. Our officers are working to identify the suspects so that they can be arrested and charged for this violent crime. We urge all residents in the area to immediately call 911 if they see any suspicious activity on their property and are concerned for their safety,” said S/Sgt. Andrew Cowan, of the Spruce Plains RCMP.

Anyone with information in relation to this home invasion is asked to call the Neepawa Detachment of the Spruce Plains RCMP at 204-476-7340, call Crime Stoppers anonymously at 1-800-222-8477, or secure tip online at www.manitobacrimestoppers.com.
