Police seek identity of man after assault victim hit head on pavement, left unconscious
Winnipeg police have released images from a security camera in the hope someone will recognize a man wanted in connection with a serious assault earlier this year that left another man unconscious.
A 34-year-old man was found unconscious after he hit his head on the pavement following the assault on Navy Way, off Assiniboine Avenue, on April 19.
He was rushed to hospital and stabilized before being released, but will require further medical treatment and is likely to have a lengthy recovery, police said in a news release on Friday.
Investigators say the 34-year-old got into a verbal argument with a man who was causing a disturbance outside his home around 5 p.m. The 34-year-old went outside and was immediately assaulted and thrown to the ground, hitting his head, police said.
Witnesses described the attacker as tall, about 25-30 years old, with shaggy brown hair and a short brown beard.
He was wearing light blue jeans, white Nike runners with a black swoosh logo and a blue Winnipeg Jets jersey with Byfuglien and 33 in white on the back.
He was last seen running north toward Smith Street.

(Courtesy/Noovo Info) A bail hearing has been scheduled for next month for the mother of a three-year-old Montreal girl who was missing for three days before being found on an Ontario highway. The toddler was found Wednesday on the side of Highway 417 near St. Albert, Ont. after her mother reported her missing on Sunday. An Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) drone spotted her alone after police believe she spent the entire time all by herself with no food or water. The girl's mother appeared in court again on Friday at the Valleyfield courthouse after she was arrested by Quebec provincial police Monday evening and charged with one count of child abandonment. The Crown prosecutor requested and was granted a publication ban to protect the young girl's identity. As such, the name of the girl's mother, or anything else that would identify her, cannot be published. The Crown is opposing her release from custody. A judge scheduled a two-day bail hearing on July 3 at the Valleyfield courthouse as the prosecution waits to receive more evidence from police. The accused mother was remanded into custody at the Leclerc detention centre for women in Laval and was ordered not to communicate with the victim or her father.
