Youth stabbed near Woodlawn Public Library

Charges have been laid after a stabbing near Dartmouth’s Woodlawn Public Library.

Halifax Regional Police spokesperson Sgt. Nancy Rudback told News 95.7 officers arrived on Eisener Boulevard around 7 p.m. yesterday.

“The initial report was two groups of males engaged in a fight,” said Rudback.  “After an investigation, it appeared that one of the males involved suffered a minor stab wound to his upper torso.”

Rudback said the youth was taken to hospital and has since been released.

She added the incident does not appear to be random as the parties know each other.

Rudback said a 19-year-old has been charged with assault with a weapon, and will appear in court this morning.
