The men were taken to hospital and have since been released.

Police say a fourth man was seen running from the scene and they believe a fifth person may have been involved.

Stanley Smith of Moncton has been charged with aggravated assault in connection with the incident. The 54-year-old man appeared in Moncton provincial court Tuesday and was remanded into custody. He is due back in court Wednesday for a bail hearing.

A second man, 31-year-old Joshua Belliveau of Memramcook, N.B., was charged last week with assault causing bodily harm. Belliveau appeared in court Friday. He was remanded into custody and is due back in court Friday for a bail hearing.
