PROJECT RECALL
In February 2013, members of the Winnipeg Police Service Street Crime Unit initiated Project Recall which focussed on information gathering pertaining to the Mad Cow street gang and their involvement in illegal drug activities.
After being engaged in a variety of drug trafficking related investigations, which targeted specific drug cells within this group, officers identified ten main street level drug dealers. This information translated into successfully obtaining ten individual arrest warrants and two entry warrants at residences located on Simcoe Street and Langside Street.
On April 25, 2013, officers commenced with the arrest process of the project. As of today, nine of the ten primary Mad Cow members have been arrested, along with two other members during the sweep. One 18 year old male remains outstanding. All of the accused taken into custody have been processed and detained at either the Provincial Remand Centre or Manitoba Youth Centre.
