2 people taken to hospital from west Winnipeg bungalow
Condition of patients not yet disclosed after emergency vehicles gather on quiet residential street
Police and emergency vehicles converged on a quiet residential street in Winnipeg's Westwood neighbourhood Tuesday following an event that sent two people to hospital.
At about 3:15 p.m., two police cars, two ambulances, two fire trucks and at least one paramedic supervisor vehicle drove up to a five-room, 1,100-square-foot bungalow on Wordsworth Way, neighbours said.
Neighbours told CBC News police arrived first at the home. They said two people were taken out of the bungalow on stretchers. They also said it appeared emergency workers were attempting to administer CPR.
Const. Rob Carver confirmed two people were taken to hospital. He said he could not comment on their conditions or say what that took place at the home.
On Tuesday evening, two vehicles were parked in the bungalow's driveway, while a police cruiser remained parked in front of the home, which was not cordoned off by police tape.
Neighbours said they believed a couple lived in the home and they didn't know what happened inside.
Another man, who identified himself as a cousin of one of the residents, arrived by car at the end of the street and walked up to speak to police officers for several minutes. He declined comment.
