Manitoba RCMP charged a third individual in an attempted murder investigation related to a 2020 incident in West St. Paul.
A 44-year-old man, who was already in custody at Milner Ridge Correctional Centre, was charged Friday with attempted murder, kidnapping, aggravated assault and forcible confinement, police said.
The charges are connected with an incident in May 2020, which RCMP said involved a 32-year-old woman who was seriously assaulted and left in a ditch.
Two women were arrested around the time the victim was discovered, and charged with similar offences, as well as sexual assault.
