RCMP in Thompson have arrested 28 people during a DART Deployment.

Kevin Lewis, Staff Sergeant for the RCMP,  talks here about what the DART deployment is.

"The DART deployment is actually the Division Action Response Team which is a combined effort of resources within Manitoba between the RCMP and some of the Winnipeg Police Service members that are out enforcing outstanding warrants for individuals that are wanted."

Arrests were made on the spot and people were given a promise to appear. And others had to go to the station and speak to a justice of the peace.

As well as the DART Deployment, a controlled drug and substances act search warrant was executed. This resulted in a seizure of 20 grams of cocaine and cash. Charges are pending in that case.
