A Dauphin man remains in custody after being found in possession of weapons and drug paraphernalia, last week

On Mar. 28, at 9:30 p.m., RCMP patrolling Main Street South saw a man outside a convenience store who was breaching the conditions of his release order.

An RCMP officer from the West District General Investigation Section arrested the man, who initially resisted, and safely took him into custody.

A subsequent search of the bag the suspect was carrying uncovered multiple weapons, including a sawed-off shotgun, a knife, ammunition and a road flare. Drug paraphernalia was also found inside the bag.

Daniel Gingera, 42, from Dauphin has been charged with 14 offences, including resisting a peace officer, four counts of failing to comply with a release order, two counts of carrying a concealed weapon, two counts of possession of a weapon for a dangerous purpose, three counts of weapons possession contrary to an order, unauthorized possession of a firearm and possession of a prohibited firearm.
