On the morning of August 1, 2010, members of the Carman Area RCMP with assistance from the Winnipeg RCMP Drug Section executed a search warrant at a residence in the RM of Roland.

Police found an indoor marijuana grow operation at the residence consisting of 24 cannabis marijuana plants and related growing equipment. The value of these plants is estimated at $24,000.
 
Mould and damage created by the grow operation has caused the residence to be unsafe for further use. As a result, the Manitoba Office of the Fire Commissioner has condemned the building.
 
Police have been continuing their investigation into this matter. A number of suspects have been identified and charges are pending.
 
The investigation continues.
