NAPS Lifts Brunswick House Shelter-In-Place Advisory

Nishnawbe-Aski Police have lifted the shelter-in-place advisory issued for Brunswick House First Nation, saying they "believe there is no ongoing threat to public safety"

The advisory was issued Sunday, October 12th, after a shooting in the community - it continued until it was lifted Thursday, October 16th, and even prompted cancellation of school buses earlier in the week.

The initial incident saw police respond to a disturbance at a residence, with officers finding an injured male whose exact status is unclear but the injuries are not believed to be life-threatening.

NAPS warns "a police presence may remain in the area" as they're still investigating and searching for a male suspect, initially reported to be a "young male", but no further details have been given.
