On October 25, 2015, just after 12am, officers from the Dauphin Municipal RCMP received a report that three inmates had escaped from the Dauphin Correctional Centre in Dauphin, Manitoba.
Investigators learned that the three men had climbed over a fence and were last seen heading east. Moments later, investigators were notified of a break-in to a garage at a nearby residence. Officers conducted a search of the area and within 30 minutes of the initial report, located and arrested one of the three escapees. Around 3:30am, the other two suspects were in custody after being arrested in the Swan River area by officers from the Swan River detachment.
RCMP report that 27-year-old Victor Norbert St. Paul from the Ebb and Flow First Nation, 23-year-old Chad Robert Woods from the Crane River First Nation and 21-year-old David Harvey Barker from the Shoal River Indian Reserve, have each been charged with escaping custody.
