Darpan News Desk The Canadian Press, 31 Jul, 2024 02:33 PM

Police say a 29-year-old man has been charged in relation to a series of stabbings in downtown Vancouver last week.

Officers responded last Monday night to reports that a man in his early 30s had been stabbed in the back, followed by two more stabbings in the same area.

At the time, police said there were no indications that the three victims knew the suspect, who was arrested shortly after the alleged stabbings.

Police say a man has been charged with one count of aggravated assault and remains in custody before his next court appearance.
