Police said a Gallagher Avenue stabbing that sent a victim to hospital in critical condition has led to a series of charges against a suspect.
Officers and emergency crews responded shortly before 4:45 a.m. on Feb. 18 to the 2100 block of Gallagher Avenue for a report of a fight.
Two men got into an argument over alcohol and one of the men pulled out a knife and stabbed the victim, “causing a serious life-threatening injury,” said police.
The victim managed to flee to a lower level of the home, where a family member helped him, before emergency crews arrived and took him to hospital in critical condition.
Members of the homicide unit were called and continue to investigate.
Jeremy Peltier, 27, Winnipeg turned himself in faces charges for aggravated assault, assault with a weapon and several breaches of an outstanding warrant.
