Two suspects remain at large after a violent incident in Dauphin, Manitoba RCMP say.

Officers were called to 6th Avenue Southwest in Dauphin Friday evening, with the report of an assault and shots fired.

Police said when they arrived, they found two victims — a 27-year-old woman and a 58-year-old man — but the suspects had already fled the scene.

Police said the victims were entering a local business when they were confronted by suspects who hit the woman in the head with a hard object and cut the man. When the victims got in their car to leave, someone fired a gun at the vehicle, hitting the passenger side.
