49 artikulo 2 oras ang nakalipas 17

🚨 Crime & Public Safety

  1. Apat inakusahan matapos mamatay ang lalaking natagpuang may pinsala sa labas ng Lynn Lake RCMP detachment. Ayon sa RCMP, isang 72-anyos na lalaki ang natagpuang may pinsala sa labas ng Lynn Lake detachment noong umaga ng Sept. 20 at idineklara nang patay sa lugar; apat na residente ng Lynn Lake ang inakusahan ng assault causing bodily harm at nananatiling nakakulong habang nagpapatuloy ang imbestigasyon ng Major Crime Services.
  2. Mga rekord sa hukuman nagsasabing apat ang inakusahan sa pagkamatay ng lalaking natagpuang sa labas ng Lynn Lake RCMP detachment. Ang mga kaso ay kaugnay ng parehong insidente noong Sept. 20 kung saan natagpuan ang 72-anyos na lalaki sa labas ng detachment; ang Manitoba’s Office of the Chief Medical Examiner ay bahagi ng nagpapatuloy na imbestigasyon sa sanhi ng kanyang pagkamatay.
  3. Lalaking Quebec napatunayang guilty sa human trafficking matapos tawagan ang biktima ng halos 1,000 beses. Sumulat si Judge Denis Guénette na si Jean‑François D’Asti‑Brideau ay nahatulan sa human trafficking, benefiting from proceeds of trafficking, pimping, disobeying a court order at obstruction of justice matapos igiit ng mga taga-prosekusyon na halos 1,000 tawag ang ginawa sa loob ng 14 buwan; sinuri ng hukom ang 100 tawag at natagpuan na 88 rito ay sa biktima.
  4. Nabawi ang statutory release ni Shawn Lamb, na umamin sa pagpatay sa dalawang babae sa Winnipeg noong 2012. Kinumpirma ng balita na nabawi ang statutory release ni Shawn Lamb matapos ang kanyang pag-amin sa dalawang homicide sa Winnipeg noong 2012; binawi ng mga awtoridad ng korte ang naunang desisyon ukol sa maagang pagpapalaya.

🏛️ Government & Politics

  1. Karamihan sa mga premier tahimik tungkol sa mga proposisyon sa Alberta constitutional referendum. Hindi pumabor nang hayagan ang Manitoba at ibang premier sa apat na tanong ni Alberta Premier Danielle Smith para sa referendum sa Oct. 19, na kasama ang pagtatanggal ng Senado at pagbibigay ng kapangyarihan sa Alberta na pumili ng mga hukom sa King’s Bench at Court of Appeal; malamang na kailanganin para sa bisa ng mga tanong ang 7/50 rule at pag-apruba ng federal na pamahalaan.
  2. Abogada ng Manitoba na si Joan Jack nanalo sa kaso laban sa Gowling WLG kaugnay ng fees sa day school settlement. Nagpasya si Judge Shauna McCarthy na nilabag ng Gowling ang obligasyon na iharap ang mga claim ng fees ng mga nagrereklamo sa Federal Court matapos makuha ng Gowling ang $1.5 billion na settlement at $55 million na legal fees; si Joan Jack — na nagsampa ng orihinal na statement of claim noong 2009 — ay hindi nakatanggap ng kabayaran hanggang sa desisyong ito.
  3. Winnipeg council inaprubahan ang pag-develop ng ika-apat na 911 response pathway para sa mental-health calls. Pinagbotohan ng konseho nang walang pagtutol ang pagbuo ng Winnipeg Community Crisis Response (WCCR) model na nagpapahintulot sa mga dispatcher na i-triage ang 911 calls at i-route ang non‑violent mental-health o addiction calls sa isang WCCR team sa halip na sa police, fire o paramedics, ayon kay Mayor Scott Gillingham at sa executive policy committee.

🏈 Sports

  1. Blue Bombers nawala ang 14-point lead, natalo ng 30-28 sa Argonauts sa Princess Auto Stadium. Nanguna ang Winnipeg 21-7 pero nagrally ang Toronto at nagtapos na panalo ang Argonauts ng 30-28; rookie na si Dorian Singer ay nagkaroon ng 113 yards sa anim na catches sa kanyang ikatlong start habang humina ang opensa ng Bombers sa ikalawang half.
  2. Late field goal ng Argonauts naghatid sa Toronto ng 30-28 na panalo laban sa Winnipeg; Janarion Grant nag-return ng missed FG ng 128 yards. Ang 36-yard field goal ni Lirim Hajrullahu na may 27 segundo na lang ay siya ring nag-break ng tabla; si Chad Kelly ay nag-threw ng 290 yards at si Janarion Grant ay nag-return ng missed Sergio Castillo 128 yards para sa TD.
  3. Winnipeg Jets patuloy na hinaharap ang holdout ni Connor Hellebuyck habang nagpapatuloy ang training camp. Sinabi ng kapitan na si Adam Lowry na “still have a lot of good pieces” sa koponan sa kabila ng pagtanggi ni Hellebuyck na mag-report at ng kanyang indefinite suspension, at hinikayat ng winger na si Kyle Connor ang buong rekumitment kung babalik si Hellebuyck.
  4. Jets nagbawas ng lima pa bago ang pre-season finale, naiwan ang 26 healthy players sa camp. Inilagay ng Jets sina Isaak Phillips, Nikita Chibrikov, Parker Ford at Noah Gregor sa waivers para ma-loan sa AHL Manitoba Moose at in-assign ang goalie na si Thomas Milic sa Moose, na nag-iwan ng 15 forwards, siyam na defencemen at dalawang goalies sa camp.

💼 Economy & Business

  1. May-ari ng tindahan sa Winnipeg tumigil sa pagbebenta ng Pokemon cards matapos manakaw ng $2,500 dolyar na Kanadyano ng humigit-kumulang 20,500 cards. Sabi ni Terri Settle na pumasok ang mga magnanakaw sa pamamagitan ng vent noong Sept. 8, sinira ang isang pader at ninakaw ang humigit-kumulang 20,500 cards mula sa Terri’s Trinkets and Toys sa north end, na nagdulot sa kanya ng tinatayang 2,500 dolyar na Kanadyano na pagkalugi at nag-udyok na itigil niya ang pagbebenta ng Pokemon cards.

🚑 Breaking & Incidents

  1. Tala ng korte naglalarawan ng 14-buwang trafficking campaign na isinagawa sa halos araw-araw na tawag. (Tumutukoy ang entry na ito sa trafficking conviction na nabanggit sa itaas.) Ang pattern ni Jean‑François D’Asti‑Brideau ng halos 1,000 tawag mula sa custody ay nag-pressure sa kanyang partner na magpatuloy sa sex work sa loob ng 14 buwan, ayon sa Aug. 11 judgment ni Judge Denis Guénette.
  2. Iniulat ng RCMP na sinubukan ang first aid matapos matagpuang nasaktan ang lalaki sa labas ng Lynn Lake detachment bago idineklara siyang patay. Natagpuan ng mga opisyal at isang cell guard ang 72-anyos na lalaki noong Sept. 20, tinawag ang EMS at idineklara nang patay sa lugar; apat na suspek ang nasa kustodiya dahil sa mga assault charges.

🎨 Community & Culture

  1. Babaeng taga-Winnipeg nagsiwalat publiko ng detalyadong romance scam matapos makilala ang suspek sa Tinder. Ang babae, na nagtatrabaho sa mga vulnerable youth at hindi pinangalanan, ay nagsabi na nag-uusap sila araw-araw sa loob ng anim na linggo; nagpanggap ang lalaki na may-ari ng cybersecurity company at ipinadala siya sa Toronto kung saan ang personal na pagkikita ay naging kahina-hinala.
