RCMP have issued a warrant for the arrest of a 28-year-old man from Steinbach.

On December 28, police were dispatched to the property of an MTS compound where two men were caught in the act of Break and Enter.

43-year-old, Jeffrey Carlson of La Broquerie was arrested on scene. 28-year-old Michael Renz of Steinbach fled the scene but was arrested following a brief foot pursuit by officers. Copper was recovered in the suspect vehicle.

Renz was also charged with a previous Break and Enter to the same MTS compound on December 12. He was on a previous recognizance on other charges and was remanded into custody.

Renz was released but RCMP currently have an outstanding warrant for his arrest related to other incidents.
