Staff at a radio station in Swan River, Man., say they're taking matters into their own hands after dealing with several attempted break-ins and a threat they say police are not taking seriously. As a result, staff have been patrolling the area in the station's vehicles due to "the lack of police presence in Swan River," the post said. Asked to respond to Gade's concerns, Cyrenne said Swan River RCMP will respond to all calls that require police assistance, and will follow up on all complaints and carry out comprehensive investigations as required. Swan River Mayor Glen McKenzie said he was concerned to hear residents were thinking of taking the law into their own hands. Swan River is about 500 kilometres northwest of Winnipeg.
