Man Escapes, Points Gun at Officers | Winnipeg News

Winnipeg police just slapped a 35-year-old with 22 charges after a wild chase involving a loaded, homemade sawed-off gun. It started when officers tried to pull him over for riding an e-bike on the sidewalk — he bolted, ditched his sweater, and pulled a live .22 caliber weapon on cops. After a tense street pursuit, he was tackled, the gun skidded across the road, and bystanders were urged to grab it — but the cops secured both weapon and suspect. Lussier, already on probation and violating his ankle monitor, now faces assault with a weapon, firearms offenses, and probation violations — all after a chaotic, dangerous run through the city.
