Three men held on ‘high-risk’ warrants

SALMON ARM — The RCMP say three men are in custody after two “high-risk” warrants were executed Tuesday in Salmon Arm.

Police said the men face potential criminal charges, but provided no other details.

Two of the men, 28 and 27, are from Salmon Arm, while the third man, 39, is from nearby Canoe.

The RCMP said a team of tactically trained officers were involved in the execution of the warrants shortly before 11 a.m. at two residences.

Cpl. Jesse O’Donaghey said the police operation ended without incident. The RCMP said the warrants are related to an ongoing criminal investigation.

O’Donaghey said two of the men were arrested when the warrants were executed and the third man was already in police custody on an unrelated matter.
