Peel Regional Police say they have identified the third suspect in an assault on a man with autism in a Mississauga bus terminal.
A Canada-wide warrant has been issued for 21-year-old Jaspaul Uppal who is wanted for one count of aggravated assault.
The incident occurred on March 13 when a 29-year-old victim from Mississauga was attacked in the Square-One bus terminal while sitting on the lower-level stairs putting on inline skates.
A disturbing surveillance video was released by police in which the three suspects can be seen kicking and punching the victim before walking away.
The victim was taken to hospital with serious but non-life-threatening injuries.
The other two suspects were identified in March and are both facing one count of aggravated assault.
