Manitoba RCMP are searching for a man from Long Plain First Nation and asking for the public’s help in identifying a second suspect connected to a Portage la Prairie incident earlier this month.
Officers from the Portage detachment were called to a home on Royal Road on the evening of Aug. 8, where they were told that two men claiming to be RCMP officers asked the residents to let them inside, before breaking a door and window on the porch in a failed attempt to break in.
The men then took off in a white sedan, police said.
Manitoba RCMP are looking to identify this man.
