SALMON ARM — The RCMP say three men are in custody after two “high-risk” warrants were executed Tuesday in Salmon Arm.

Police say the men face potential criminal charges, but provided no other details.

Two of the men, a 28-year-old and a 27-year-old, are from Salmon Arm, while the third man, who is 39, is from nearby Canoe.

The RCMP say a team of tactically trained officers were involved in the execution of the warrants shortly before 11 a.m. at two different residences.

Cpl. Jesse O’Donaghey says the police operation ended without incident.

The RCMP say the warrants are related to an ongoing criminal investigation.

O’Donaghey says two of the men were arrested when the warrants were executed and the third man was already in police custody on an unrelated matter.
