Cape Dorset gun crimes rattle Mounties
The entire RCMP detachment in Cape Dorset, Nunavut, has taken stress leave in light of recent gun violence in the Baffin Island community, including two incidents this week alone, according to the territory's top Mountie.
Chief Supt. Steve McVarnock said the remote Arctic hamlet's four RCMP officers have been rattled by the incidents, which include a 3½-hour armed standoff and suspicious death on Sunday, and a firefight with two gun-toting youths on Wednesday.
"You just don't know how it's going to unfold, how it's going to resolve. And waiting for help from Iqaluit, even though [Cape Dorset is] only a 50-minute plane ride away from Iqaluit, it can seem like an eternity when, you know, you're being shot at," McVarnock told CBC News on Thursday.
"So when you add up that stress level, the body and the mind can only take so much."
The RCMP have yet to announce what, if any, charges will be laid against the two youths involved in Wednesday's shootout. Both are in custody, with one recovering from a non-life-threatening wound in hospital in Iqaluit, Nunavut's capital city.
RCMP say the Cape Dorset Mounties' efforts to negotiate with the armed youths early Wednesday morning ended when the youths allegedly opened fire down a residential street.
The officers returned fire once, and the youths surrendered afterward, police said.

I'd hate to see what this batch of Redcoat pussies would be like after a couple of days in Compton!
