Teenager charged in Surrey stabbing

Darpan News Desk The Canadian Press, 19 Sep, 2024 03:39 PM

Surrey R-C-M-P say one youth has been charged following a stabbing attack on two men earlier this month.

Police say on September 11th, officers responded to calls of a fight on 130-A Street.

Officers found two men with injuries and they were taken to hospital, while the suspects drove off before police could make the arrest.

Police eventually arrested two people, releasing one without charges while a 17-year-old man faces two counts of assault with a weapon and two counts of assault causing bodily harm.
