Teens charged in Vancouver school stabbing after basketball game
VANCOUVER — Police in Vancouver say two teens have been charged for a stabbing last month after a basketball game at a local secondary school.
They say the accused are a 16-year-old and a 15-year-old, who have not been otherwise identified.
The 16-year-old faces charges of aggravated assault and possession of a weapon for a dangerous purpose, while the 15-year-old was charged with assault with a weapon.
Both have been released on conditions.
The attack happened on Feb. 2, when police say a teen was seriously injured after the game at Eric Hamber Secondary School.
The game was between Hamber and Killarney Secondary, and investigators say they believe fights broke out among the spectators, resulting in the 18-year-old being hurt.
