A man is dead, a woman is in custody and police are hunting for another man after a shooting south of Winnipeg.
Winnipeg police say they were alerted by RCMP early this morning about a stolen truck believed to be occupied by people with guns, heading toward the city.
Police say a chase ensued, lasting about one hour, into the city and back out again.
They say the stolen vehicle rammed a police cruiser, officers fired, and the suspects fled.
They say officers caught up to the truck, managed to arrest a woman who tried to flee on foot, and found a man in the car who had been shot and later died.
One man got into another vehicle and fled, and RCMP in Saskatchewan say the suspect — 29-year-old David Burling — was last seen driving on a highway near Esterhazy.
Students in Niverville, Manitoba, schools were told they would be spending recess and lunch indoors as a precaution as the investigation continues.
