Several weeks ago, a 16-year-old male was arrested for a violent criminal offense involving a weapon.
He was held for bail and later released on conditions, including house arrest. Within a week, he was arrested again for breaching those conditions and was subsequently released a second time under the same terms.
On November 21, he was once again arrested—this time in connection with a stabbing in Oshawa—while also facing new charges for breaching his court-imposed conditions, police said.
On Thursday, November 20, at around 12:30 pm, members from East Division responded to a stabbing in the area of Coldstream Drive and Harmony Road North.
Officers arrived on scene and located two students from Maxwell Heights Secondary School that had been stabbed. Both were taken to Toronto-area hospitals with non-life-threatening injuries.
On Friday, November 21, members of the East Division Criminal Investigations Branch, with the assistance of the East Division Community Response Unit and Tactical Support Unit, executed a search warrant at a residence. The suspect was located and taken into custody without incident.
A 16-year-old male is charged with: Aggravated Assault, Robbery, Possess Weapons Dangerous, and Fail to Comply with Release Order.
He was held for a bail hearing. This investigation is ongoing.
Anyone with cellphone, dash cam, surveillance footage or information about this incident is asked to contact D/Cst. Anderson of the East Division Criminal Investigations Branch at 1-888-579-1520 ext. 1618.
