    WINNIPEG — Two men are in custody after a Winnipeg teen was shot with a gun allegedly stolen from an off-duty RCMP officer.
     
    Winnipeg police say a 16-year-old girl was shot early Saturday morning after an altercation in a convenience store parking lot.
     
    She was rushed to hospital in critical condition.
     
    Deputy police chief Danny Smyth says investigators believe the gun was stolen Friday evening from a marked RCMP vehicle parked outside the officer's home.

    Matthew Wilfred McKay, who is 22, and 25-year-old Matthew Andrew Miles are facing numerous charges including attempted murder and theft.
