Winnipeg police are asking for the public’s help after a man was found injured at the Slaw Rebchuk Bridge Friday evening.
The force says a general patrol unit came across the man near a sidewalk at the bridge at about 10:30 p.m.
He was brought to hospital in critical condition. The Major Crimes Unit is now investigating.
On social media Friday, police had advised the bridge was completely shut down. A separate post Saturday morning said it had reopened to vehicles, but the east footpath remained closed to pedestrians.
