Winnipeg police are investigating a robbery that occurred last weekend along a bike path at Assiniboine Park.
At around 1:30 p.m. on May 18, a 25-year-old woman was assaulted while walking near Roblin Boulevard and Commissary Road. The attacker, an adult male, demanded money and continued the assault until bystanders intervened. The suspect fled the scene before officers arrived.
Later that afternoon, emergency responders were called to the nearby area for a medical incident involving a man matching the suspect’s description. He was taken to hospital in stable condition and identified by police. While no charges have been laid in the robbery, the man remains in custody on an unrelated warrant.
Police say there is no ongoing threat to public safety and are asking anyone with information or footage of the incident to contact investigators at (204) 986-6219 or Crime Stoppers at (204) 786-TIPS.
