On April 14, 2025, at 6:20 am, Thompson Rural RCMP received a report of a break and enter to a privately-owned fly-in lodge, near Nueltin Lake, located approximately 30 kilometres south of the Manitoba-Nunavut border. 

The owner advised RCMP that numerous cottages on his property had been entered and considerable damage had been caused to many of them.
 
The suspects appear to have camped out over the winter months on the property while hunting caribou.

On April 18, RCMP officers from Thompson, including RCMP Forensic Identification Services, and Manitoba Conservation Officer Service, flew up to the lodge to conduct a scene examination.

Thompson Rural RCMP, along with RCMP Forensic Identification Services, are investigating the break-in, as well as the damage to the property, while the Manitoba Conservation Officer Service will investigate the harvesting of caribou.
