The Manitoba RCMP is searching for a man who was charged in an August 2019 homicide and is considered violent.

On Monday, officers said they are looking for Robert Fleury, who was charged with manslaughter in March 2021 for the homicide of Matthew Swain.

Fleury was released from custody, but breached his court-ordered conditions, according to RCMP.

Officers have now issued two warrants for his arrest.

Police describe Fleury as five-foot-nine, weighing 280 pounds, with dark brown hair and brown eyes.

Mounties warn people that if they see Fleury, they should not approach him, but rather call 911 immediately.

On Aug. 14, 2019, RCMP officers were called to an assault on Highway 16, near the Russell Airport.
