On May 11, at approximately 12 :15 a.m., RCMP responded to a report of four males kicking the door in at a residence on 11th Street Northwest in Portage la Prairie.
Investigators learned the suspects had called one of the home’s occupants beforehand and said they were coming over. When they arrived, they kicked down the door and began throwing objects – including a knife and a stereo speaker – at the home and one of its occupants. The suspects then fled.
No injuries were reported.
Officers responded immediately and located two suspects a short distance away. The pair, both from Portage la Prairie, were arrested without incident.
A 35-year-old male faces charges of:
- Assault with a weapon; and
- Mischief under $5,000.
A 16-year-old male faces charges of:
- Assault with a weapon; and
- Failure to comply.
Both suspects remained in custody overnight, pending a Monday court appearance.
