Police have made an arrest in connection with the stabbing of two people at a restaurant in Newmarket over the weekend, including one individual who investigators believe was trying to stop the attack.
Police say a man who was allegedly kidnapped from outside his workplace north of Toronto has been found in good health, though the search is still on for multiple suspects in the case. A York Regional Police patch is shown in Aurora, Ont. on Dec. 19, 2022. THE CANADIAN PRESS/Arlyn McAdoreyPolice were first called to the restaurant near Davis and Longford drives at around 9 p.m. on Sunday for a reported stabbing.
Police say that when officers arrived on scene, they located the suspect outside the restaurant and two victims with stab wounds near the entrance. Investigators believe that the suspect attacked a 34-year-old man with a knife inside the restaurant and then stabbed a 68-year-old man who attempted to intervene multiple times.“The altercation moved into the parking lot where citizens intervened and subdued the suspect until police arrived. No one else was injured,” a news release issued by police on Tuesday notes.
A suspect, identified as 40-year-old Newmarket resident Fabian Michael Vassell, is charged with eight offences, including two counts of attempted murder and three counts of assault with a weapon.'Absolutely outrageous': Hundreds of dump trucks could drive through Liberty Village due to Ontario Line construction
