Two youth have been charged in connection with an assault that has left a new native youth in Fort Frances centre empty.
Provincial police say a 15-year-old male and an 18-year-old male were part of five youths who assaulted two workers at the Ge-Da-Gi-Binez Youth Centre last Wednesday night.
Neither worker was seriously hurt.
The altercation resulted in all six youth detained at the secure custody facility being transported to a facility in Thunder Bay.
A spokesperson with the Ministry of Children and Youth Services says the ministry and centre staff are currently reviewing the incident with the intent of bringing the youth back the Fort Frances facility sometime soon.
The centre opened at the end of March.
