A group of five people have now been charged following the alleged swarming.

Tips from the public helped the Ottawa Police Service track down and arrest three more suspects in a robbery and sexual assault at Confederation Park.

Officers say a man in his late 20s was surrounded by a group of five people who violently removed his backpack and sexually assaulted him around 1:05 a.m., on August 27. The victim did not know any of the suspects.

Two people were arrested and charged on September 3.
