On January 14, 2025, at approximately 8:30 am, Morris RCMP received a call for service at a residence in Dominion City.
The first officer to arrive on scene was confronted by a male who exited a garage on the property carrying a metal object, and began to advance towards the officer.
Despite repeated commands to stop and drop the weapon, the male continued towards the officer, who then discharged his firearm.
The officer provided medical aid, until Emergency Medical Services arrived. The 33-year-old male was then transported to hospital by STARS in critical condition, where he later died from his injuries.
The officer did not sustain any physical injuries in the incident.
The Independent Investigation Unit has been notified and is investigating. The Manitoba RCMP Major Crime Services is on scene as well.
