On February 25, 2017, constables Trevor Bragnalo and Steven Thompson rescued several people from a burning condominium in Winnipeg, Manitoba. Entering the building through the rear fire escape, Constable Thompson guided four people trapped on the second floor to safety by breaking down one of the rear doors. He then ran to the third floor, where he rescued a sleeping man by pulling him to safety through a window. Meanwhile, Constable Bragnalo found two people trapped in a third-floor suite whose window was covered by a locked metal security screen. Kicking the screen open, Constable Bragnalo pulled the two tenants out through the window. As the intensity of the fire grew, both constables did a final sweep of the building, removing one last resident from the second floor.
