On Monday morning, a serious assault occurred in Osborne Village, leaving two people in the hospital and two others in police custody. One of the victims was in critical condition, while the other was stable. The incident took place early in the morning, with officers responding to the scene just after midnight on Osborne Street near River Avenue.
The Winnipeg Police Service (WPS) confirmed that two adult males were arrested in connection with the assault. At the time of the report, no charges had been filed. Police investigators processed the area, with a police tape stretching across the scene through the morning rush hour. By 10 a.m., officers had cleared the area, leaving behind signs of the violence, including a broken pane and scattered glass near the Gas Station Arts Centre.
The WPS Major Crimes Division has taken over the investigation. The Osborne Village Business Improvement Zone (BIZ) stated that while the Village has seen fewer reported violent incidents and a decline in overall violent crime, property crime has increased. The BIZ also noted that community safety ambassador teams and police foot patrols operate during regular hours, but not overnight.
