Winnipeg police are investigating a violent, random assault that occurred late Friday night at The Forks.
At around 11:15 p.m. on June 6, a 30-year-old man was attacked by another man and knocked unconscious. Witnesses say the assault continued even after the victim lost consciousness. He was taken to hospital in stable condition.
The suspect allegedly stole an item from the victim and later threw it at a woman walking her dog near the Riverwalk. Police are asking that woman to come forward, as she may have valuable information.
The suspect is described as Indigenous, 25 to 35 years old, with a medium to heavy build. He was last seen near Bonnycastle Park wearing a black T-shirt, black pants, black shoes, and a New York Yankees baseball cap.
Anyone with information is asked to contact police at (204) 986-6219 or Crime Stoppers anonymously at (204) 786-TIPS.
