A month later, the Winnipeg Police Service distributed images of potential suspects and asked for the public’s help identifying them.
Public Information Officer Constable Rob Carver said on Saturday it was a move that was critical to the investigation.
“I think it’s easy for the public to underestimate how effective they are in these cases,” Cst. Carver said.
“I don’t think the case would have moved forward without the assistance of the public.”
Jeffery Catacutan, Justin Frank, Simon La and Jonclemon Librea have been arrested and are charged with two counts of aggravated assault each.
