Police were called to the parking lot of the Atlantic Superstore on King Street in North Sydney on July 14.
Investigators say Shawn Curtis Jack was attacked in a wooded area behind the store.
He then stumbled down a hill, leaving a trail of blood behind him, and made his way through the parking lot before collapsing on a bench.
Employees found the man and called 911.
Jack was taken to the Cape Breton Regional Hospital with serious head injuries and later transported to a Halifax hospital. He remains in hospital in serious condition.
