On March 11, at approximately 10:15 p.m., Swan River RCMP responded to a report of a home invasion that had occurred at a residence in the community, on 1st Avenue South.
A couple, both in their mid-60s, were inside the home when they heard a knock on the front door. Before either could open, two suspects wearing masks – one male, one female – entered the home, with one of the suspects carrying a firearm, and pushed past one of the homeowners.
The female suspect threatened to shoot the couple if they didn’t follow their instructions, stole the female homeowner’s wallet and some acetaminophen, then left.
The homeowners were not seriously injured.
A 41-year-old female suspect was subsequently apprehended by RCMP a short distance from the home. She faces charges of:
- Robbery with a firearm;
- Breaking and entering; and
- Uttering threats.
RCMP continue to search for the other suspect. The investigation continues.
