Gatineau Police say three men have been arrested in connection with a violent robbery last week.

Police say the alleged victims, who knew their attackers, went to meet the three suspects just before 7:30 p.m. July 12, in the area of Boulevard des Affaires and Avenue des Enterprises, not far from the intersection of Highway 50 and Labrosse.

Police claim a confrontation broke out at the meeting, and the victims, two of whom remain in hospital, were seriously hurt.

Yannick Lamothe and Sylvain Trépanier were arrested Tuesday. Patrick Fisher-Lapensée was arrested Wednesday morning.

Each is facing charges of armed robbery and aggravated assault.
