1 person is in custody, and another released from hospital after a scary moment in Austin Manitoba over the weekend.

Police, EMS and the STARS medical helicopter were called to the Jackson Lake area in the early morning hours of July 3rd. A 23 year old male was injured after a 21 year old male allegedly threw several small calibre bullets into a camp fire. The injured male was transported via STARS to Winnipeg for medical attention, and later released from care with non-life threatening injuries.

The suspect was arrested without incident and taken into police custody. Criminal charges are pending as the matter is still under investigation.
