The Dauphin RCMP say the second suspect in Friday's assault of one of their officers has turned himself in. The 16-year-old from Dauphin has been charged with resisting arrest and issued an appearance notice for a future date in Dauphin Provincial Court.

Around 1:30 on Friday, the officer spotted two suspects in an ongoing Possession of a Stolen Vehicle and Flight from the Police investigation. When he informed the pair they were under arrest, they started attacking him.

The officer used pepper spray, and with the help of a passerby, was able to take one suspect into custody, but the second was able to get away. The Dauphin RCMP thanks the public for their help with the investigation.
