A 49-year-old Peterborough man is facing an attempted murder charge following a stabbing last month.
Police say officers responded to a residence in the area of Southlawn Drive and Otonabee Drive on August 15, where a 42-year-old woman was found with injuries. She was taken to Peterborough Regional Health Centre for treatment.
The Peterborough Police Service Emergency Response Team contained the residence and arrested a male suspect, who was also treated at the hospital for injuries sustained during the incident.
The man had initially faced multiple assault-related charges, but police say further investigation has now resulted in an upgrade to an attempted murder charge.
The suspect’s name is not being released to protect the victim’s identity.
