New trial dates have been scheduled for a central Alberta man charged in multiple stabbings in Wetaskiwin last year.

It was on Jan. 11, 2023, at approximately 9:00 p.m., when Wetaskiwin RCMP say they responded to a report of a stabbing in Wetaskiwin.

When RCMP and EMS arrived on scene, they located one male with stab wounds.

Several minutes later, RCMP received a report of a second stabbing incident in Wetaskiwin. When Mounties arrived, two additional victims were located. Police confirm both victims were transported to hospital with serious injuries and were expected to recover. After an investigation, it was determined that both incidents were related.
