Two suspects have been arrested, but a third is being sought in connection with a violent robbery in Windsor's Walkerville neighbourhood.
Shortly after 7 a.m. on July 4, Windsor police were called about a robbery in progress at a house in the 1000 block of Lincoln Road.
Once on scene, officers found a man injured and unconscious lying outside a garage.
The victim was rushed to the hospital, where he remains in intensive care.
Officers learned that the victim had confronted three male suspects who were breaking into his garage.
A violent struggle ensued, and the suspects assaulted the victim with weapons before fleeing the scene.
Three hours later, officers located and arrested a suspect at the Windsor Regional Hospital’s Met Campus, while a second suspect was taken into custody later that evening at a residence in the 1000 block of Albert Road.
A 57-year-old man and a 35-year-old man are each charged with robbery, aggravated assault, assault with a weapon, and break-and-enter with intent to commit an indictable offence.
The 35-year-old suspect also faces an additional charge of assault causing bodily harm.
An arrest warrant has also been issued for 38-year-old Paul Christopher Kelly, who is wanted on charges of robbery, aggravated assault, assault with a weapon, and break-and-enter with intent to commit an indictable offence.
