An officer-involved shooting in Niverville, Man. on Wednesday morning led to a large police presence in the community south of Winnipeg. RCMP officials say one man is dead and a woman is in custody, while another man took off in a stolen vehicle and remains at large.

According to Winnipeg Police, the incident began with a call they received around 12:40 a.m. (CT) about a stolen vehicle, with potentially armed occupants, was headed to the city from a rural municipality to the southwest.

The truck was spotted about 10 minutes later and was followed by a police Air1 helicopter for about an hour. The chase ended at a parking lot in Otterburne, Man., where the stolen vehicle rammed a police cruiser, causing officers to fire their weapons.

The driver got out, entered another vehicle, and drove off, according to authorities. A passenger tried to run from the scene, but was arrested on-site by RCMP. Officers found a man with a gunshot wound inside the abandoned truck, and despite efforts to provide emergency treatment, he died at the scene. Global's Teagan Rasche reports.
