The Dauphin RCMP has made an arrest in a case that involves an aggravated assault on a child.
On New Year's Eve, the detachment responded to a report of a serious assault on a 6-year-old. They were told the assault had occurred days earlier but hadn't been reported to the police. The child was brought to the hospital with serious injuries, and police began investigating.
Yesterday, officers identified a suspect and arrested a 25-year-old from Dauphin for aggravated assault. He was remanded into custody. Police are not releasing the suspect's name to protect the child's identity.
