On November 5, 2026, at approximately 3 am, Gods Lake Narrows RCMP received a report of a possible assault taking place at the community’s nursing station.

 

Officers immediately attended and found local and private safety and security personnel already on scene with a female who had been restrained.

 

The initial investigation has determined that a 34-year-old female had arrived at the nursing station and was being seen by nurses.

 

At one point, the female managed to lock herself in a room with a nurse and began attacking her. A struggle between them ensued as the nurse tried to unlock the door to get out of the room.

 

Other medical staff at the nursing station eventually managed to enter the room and attempted to help their colleague at which time two other staff members were assaulted.

 

Local and private safety and security personnel arrived on scene and were able to safely restrain the female.

 

Two nurses and one physician suffered minor injuries in the incident.

 

Police arrested the female suspect and she is facing the following charges:

 

• Assault x 3
• Assault while choking, suffocating
• Forcible confinement

 

The female was released on an undertaking.

 

Gods Lake RCMP continue to investigate.
