The manhunt in Manitoba for a suspect wanted in a homicide continues.

RCMP are searching for Eric Wildman, saying they’re combing the Whiteshell area, which is near the Ontario border.

Police tweeted the vehicle he is believed to be driving was seen heading east toward Ontario, but OPP tell us they will engage if he crosses the border.

He was seen last night driving a 2020 Chevy Equinox, and is considered armed and dangerous.

Wildman is believed to be a suspect in the death of Clifford Joseph, who was reported missing on June 7th.

All possible #rcmpmb resources are being deployed to bring Eric Wildman safely into custody. Expect heavy police presence throughout the Whiteshell area. pic.twitter.com/XT87OSIB8d
