Winnipeg police arrested two teenage boys on Tuesday after responding to reports of a firearm being brandished and discharged inside CF Polo Park mall.
Officers were called to the Portage Avenue shopping centre around 2:55 p.m. after mall security reported several youths displaying what appeared to be a handgun, which was allegedly fired within the food court.
Security staff tracked the suspects, where two teens were taken into custody by police without incident. The weapon was determined to be an airsoft pistol.
No injuries were reported.
A 15-year-old boy from Winnipeg has been charged with possession of a weapon and causing a disturbance. He was released on an undertaking. The second youth was released without charges.
