State police have arrested two men wanted for seriously assaulting a man at a home on Maple Street in Danielson last month.
Joshua Whittington, 21, and Michael Papineau, 27, have been charged with first-degree assault and first-degree reckless endangerment.
Police said they got into an argument with the victim, who was found bleeding from the head in a common area of the multi-family home at 11 Maple Street the night of Dec. 22.
The fight turned physical and the suspects struck the victim over the head and pushed him into a "hole within the mill building," according to state police.
The victim was rushed to Day Kimball Hospital in Putnam and transferred to UMass Medical Center in Worcester, Massachusetts, for further treatment, state police said. His condition is unknown.
Prior to their arrest, Whittington and Papineau were considered armed and dangerous. Police said they fled to Cape Cod and were taken into custody by police in Falmouth, Massachusetts, on Dec. 29.
Whittington and Papineau were brought back to Connecticut on Jan. 2 and arrested on state charges at State Police Troop D barracks in Danielson.
