Wanted – William Alexander BUCK (Age 36)

On July 20th, 2024, the Manitoba First Nations Police were conducting pro-active traffic enforcement in the community of Opaskwayak Cree Nation. While attempting a traffic stop, a vehicle fled at a high rate of speed. Due to concerns for the safety of community members, police did not pursue the vehicle.

A short time later, police located the vehicle abandoned in the Abraham subdivision. Police Service Dog (PSD) Ceto was deployed in the area. A successful track led to the location and arrest of William Alexander Buck. He was charged with the following offences:

·       Dangerous operation of a motor vehicle

·       Flight from Peace Officer

·       Resist / Obstruct Police Officer

·       Drive while disqualified (Highway Traffic Act)

Buck was later released on several conditions along with a scheduled Court appearance in October 2024. Buck failed to appear in Court and a warrant for his arrest was issued.

To this date, attempts to locate William Buck have been unsuccessful.
