Two charged in Nipissing First Nation assault investigation

Two people are facing charges in connection to an ongoing serious assault investigation in Nipissing First Nation.

Back in October the Anishinabek Police Service responded to a call in Garden Village, with officers determining a serious assault was believed to have occurred. Investigators later identified and secured a second scene at Juniper Crescent.

The OPP says investigators have since identified the victim involved, and efforts continue to locate the person involved to confirm their well-being.

A 35-year-old from Nipissing First Nation has been charged with aggravated assault, robbery and breaking and entering with intent.

A 37-year-old from Toronto was faces the same charges, along with weapon possession and failing to comply with a probation order.

Both accused remain in custody with a North Bay court date later in November.

The investigation is being conducted by the A-P-S and the OPP and anyone with information that can assist investigators is being asked to contact police at 1-888-310-1122.
