Two men who had stopped for the night on a rural road off Highway 16 were robbed of their truck and camper trailer as one of the men was asleep inside.
Portage RCMP were sent to the scene on Provincial Road 227 in the Rural Municipality of Westlake-Gladstone at about 4:30 a.m.
One of the men, a 69-year-old from India, was sleeping in the truck while the other was in the camper, RCMP said, when three men opened the truck door and yelled at the first victim to get out.
He was assaulted and threatened with a gun, RCMP said.
The suspects got in the truck and ran over the 31-year-old as they peeled off. He was taken to hospital with non-life threatening injuries.
RCMP identified St. Paul as one of suspects and obtained a warrant for his arrest.
St. Paul is 6-feet tall and 180 pounds, with black hair and brown eyes.
Mounties said the public should not approach him, but call police if he is spotted.
The other two suspects have not yet been identified.
