A Winnipeg store owner is in the hospital after being assaulted and robbed on Saturday, police say.
Police went to the 100 block of Donald Street after receiving a report of a man that had been assaulted and left lying on the ground.
Officers found an unconscious man who was being tended to by two off-duty doctors.
He was then taken to the hospital in stable condition.
Investigators believe a group had been stealing items from a nearby convenience store when they were confronted by the owners.
During this, an altercation ensued and both owners (a man in his 60s and a woman in her 50s) were assaulted before the suspects fled.
The man suffered life-threatening injuries and remains hospitalized while the woman endured minor injuries.
During Tuesday evening, two suspects were found in the first 100 block of Mayfair Place and taken into custody.
A 51-year-old man and a 39-year-old woman from Winnipeg are facing multiple charges and have been released on undertakings.
