The search continues for three men wanted in connection with the assault of an Owen Sound business owner earlier this month, and now police say the suspects may be in the Toronto-area.
Owen Sound police said on Aug. 17, just after 9:15 p.m., officers were called to the 9th Avenue East area.
Officers said the victim — a 44-year-old man and local business owner — was assaulted by three male suspects.
According to police, the suspects went to his business, The Curry House, and “subsequently became involved in a dispute connected to the buisness.”
Police said the victim was assaulted on the sidewalk near the restaurant.
