A new arrest and additional charges have been laid, marking the third arrest tied to a stabbing incident in Cambridge.
The incident originally occurred on Monday, Mar. 23, at around 10:30 a.m. when officers with Waterloo Regional Police Service (WRPS) were sent to the area of Scrimger and Ballantyne Avenues in the city for a reported stabbing.
When they arrived on scene, those officers found a 31-year-old man suffering from multiple stab wounds. He was rushed to hospital with serious, but non-life-threatening injuries.
Later in the day, WRPS said it was able to locate and arrest two individuals, a 33-year-old woman and a 38-year-old man, both from Cambridge, in connection with the incident.
Those two were charged with Assault with a Weapon, Possession of a Weapon for a Dangerous Purpose, and Aggravated Assault.
Now, over a week later, WRPS said its South Division Street Crime Team located a third individual tied to the incident, with its Emergency Response Team executing a “high-risk arrest” on Tuesday, Mar. 31, right on Hespeler Road.
The service said the wanted man was arrested on scene without incident.
The 45-year-old man has now been charged with similar charges as the other two, with the addition of breaching a release order. He was held in custody for a bail hearing.
