Two men were sent to hospital after being found injured at separate places along Winnipeg's Main Street on Monday.

Police were called around 4 a.m. to a parking lot on Main between Sutherland and Jarvis avenues, where they found a man suffering "from severe bodily injuries."

The man was rushed to hospital in critical condition.

Police have released no other information other than to say no arrests have been made.

The lot is surrounded by police tape, which is also blocking part of the northbound curb lane on Main.

About an hour after being called to that incident, police were called to the alley near the Bell Hotel on Main, a couple of blocks away.
