Owen Sound Police were called to investigate two stabbings that occurred approximately three hours apart during the early morning hours of Sunday September 24 th . The investigations later concluded that the same individuals were responsible for both incidents.
Just prior to 2 a.m. a 20-year-old male victim approached a vehicle that had parked on 2nd Avenue East to ask the male passenger for a cigarette. At that time, the female driver exited the vehicle and, without provocation of any kind, proceeded to stab the victim in the top of the
head with a knife. The victim suffered a large laceration and was transported by ambulance to Brightshores Hospital. The victim suffered a significant, but non-life- threatening injury. The male and female fled in a vehicle from the area.
At approximately 4:30 a.m. the same male and female attended at a west side apartment building. The pair forced entry by smashing the glass door with a hammer and proceeded to cause substantial damage inside the building. Owen Sound Police attended to investigate.
While on scene the female offender was discovered by a tenant hiding in the elevator. The female proceeded to stab this man in the hand and discharged a cannister of bear spray at him.
Police intervened and the female then charged at the officer with a knife and simultaneously discharged more bear spray, striking the officer. The female was subdued after the successful deployment of a conducted energy weapon (taser). The second stabbing victim also attended
Brightshores Hospital and was treated for non-life- threatening injuries.
A continued investigation resulted in police locating and arresting the involved male who was found seated in a vehicle in the area.
The accused parties were found in possession of two prohibited daggers, multiple knives, a large axe and a machete. Police also seized Crystal
Methamphetamine and Methamphetamine pills from their possession.
