Gun left in Winnipeg taxi, police need help identifying suspect
The investigation into a gun being left in a Winnipeg taxicab has run dry and now police are asking for the public’s help.
The man got into the cab during the early morning of Feb. 1, in the first-100 block of St. Anne's Road. He was driven to the 300 block of Blake Street, in the Weston area.
It was later discovered he left behind a loaded firearm, police said.
Despite a lengthy investigation, police have not yet been able to identity the suspect, who is described as being 22 or 23 years old and about 5-foot-4 with a medium build. He also had a small moustache and was wearing a tuque, bomber-style jacket and jeans.
He also has a tattoo on the top of his right hand.
