WINNIPEG — A woman and a 15-year-old boy are dead after three shootings in less than two days. 

The woman died after an early morning shooting Tuesday, while a teen died in a shooting Monday, Winnipeg police said. 

The latest happened at about 6 a.m. Tuesday. Officers arrived on scene to find two people wounded. One woman was dead, while the second person was sent to hospital in unstable condition.

Police did not release their ages or identities.

At about 2:15 a.m. Tuesday, police said officers responded to another shooting and found three people were wounded inside a home, with another victim found nearby.

Two men in their 20s and two in their 30s were sent to hospital in unstable condition. 

“Three victims have been upgraded to stable condition, while one remains in guarded condition,” police said in a news release Tuesday.

Those shootings come after two teens were shot in the Deer Lodge area in the western part of the city.

The teenage boy died of his injuries, while a 17-year-old boy was sent to hospital, police said. 

No arrests have been made in the shootings and police have not said whether any of them are connected.
