RCMP will provide an update at 1 p.m. CT on their investigation into a triple homicide that shook a small community in western Manitoba.
Four people were found dead in the municipality of McCreary on Friday morning.
A 41-year-old man’s remains were found first, on Road 84 W., with what police say was a self-inflicted wound.
After finding the body, police went to do a well-being check at the home of a 37-year-old woman, who wasn’t there.
They went to another residence nearby and found three more bodies: A 66-year-old woman, a 65-year-old man and a 35-year-old man.
The woman police were initially looking for was found safe on Friday afternoon and taken to hospital as a precaution.
The deaths are being investigated as homicides.
Staff Sgt. Richard Sherring of RCMP major crime services will provide an update at Manitoba RCMP headquarters Wednesday at 1 p.m. CT. The meeting will be streamed live on the CBC News website.
McCreary is about 250 kilometres northwest of Winnipeg. Just over 700 people lived in the municipality as of 2021, that year’s census says.
