Three men are facing charges after a 56-year-old man was allegedly assaulted in Grand Rapids earlier this month.

According to Manitoba RCMP, officers were called to an assault on River Crescent in the community on July 19.

When they arrived, a 56-year-old man was being treated for serious injuries after being found unresponsive on the driveway of a home. He was hospitalized in critical condition, where he remains.

Mounties began investigating and identified three suspects.

A 46-year-old man was arrested in Grand Rapids on July 23, and a 35-year-old man was arrested two days later in the community after a warrant was executed.

A third suspect, a 42-year-old man, was arrested in Winnipeg on Wednesday.

All three suspects are from Grand Rapids and are facing aggravated assault charges. The trio remain in custody and the charges have not been tested in court.

RCMP continues to investigate.
