Handguns seized

On February 27, 2025, at approximately 6:50 pm, Oxford House RCMP received a call to assist First Nation Safety Officers (FNSO) and a Band Constable at a residence in the community.

When officers arrived on scene, they were advised the residence was not supposed to be occupied and there were currently two males, and one female inside from outside the community.

After an initial investigation on scene, officers arrested a 25-year-old male from Winnipeg, and a 35-year-old male and 33-year-old female both from Bunibonibee without incident.

A subsequent search of the residence produced two loaded handguns, illicit drugs, and over 200 bottles of liquor with a community value estimated at $64,000.

Brendon Valiquette, 25, has been charged with 15 offences including Fail to Comply Probation Order x2, and numerous weapons and firearm charges.

Tyler Grieves, 35, has been charged with 10 offences including Weapons Possession Contrary to Order and Fail to Surrender Authorization x3.

All three have been remanded.
