LETHBRIDGE, AB – The Lethbridge Police Service (LPS) said it has apprehended a suspected who was wanted in connection to an aggravated assault.

Police were called to the 400 block of Mayor Magrath Drive South at approximately 1:37 a.m. on Saturday, June 10, 2023, on a report of a physical altercation. A second caller told LPS shortly afterward that an injured man entered a nearby business seeking assistance.

Officers say they found a 38-year-old man with serious, non-life-threatening injuries from a stabbing. He was taken to Chinook Regional Hospital for treatment.

LPS said their investigation determined the victim was injured after he and an acquaintance got into an altercation with an unknown man.

A suspect was arrested on Saturday, June 24 without incident.
