A suspect in an incident that led to a police-involved shooting Tuesday has surrendered to Winnipeg cops.
Ashley Sandison, 31, turned himself in to police at the Public Safety Building on Thursday afternoon.
Though police haven’t publicly named the man they had searched for following the incident that involved an officer firing possibly three or four shots on Atlantic Avenue in north Winnipeg, Sandison confirmed to a television news program Thursday that he is the suspect who was at the scene.
Sandison, who allegedly has had ties to the Rock Machine outlaw motorcycle gang, has a criminal record that includes assault, uttering threats, theft and personation. He has a pair of convictions for running away from police in 2008 and for obstructing or resisting a peace officer two years earlier, according to court records.
He has also had outstanding charges for assault and choking.
Police had been on the hunt for the suspect since Tuesday afternoon when they located a pickup truck parked in the Maples.
Earlier that afternoon, the officer fired his service gun at the pickup as it was driven away from a home on Atlantic, where cops had gone to investigate an alleged violation of a court order.
No officers or bystanders were injured in the initial incident about 3:30 p.m., though a police cruiser and at least two other vehicles were damaged when the truck struck them as the suspect sped away in a back lane.
The truck, when later found parked in the area of Mandalay Drive and Anneville Crescent, had a smashed passenger-side window and what appeared to be a bullet hole above its passenger-side wheel well.
