Two residents of Regina have been charged after an apparent stabbing during an attempted vehicle theft on the morning of June 26.
Police were sent at 4:00 a.m. to Dawson Crescent just west of Albert Street where they learned of a man who had been stabbed. An injured man was found at a home and was provided first aid by police until EMS arrived and transported him to hospital. He suffered serious but non-life-threatening stab wounds.

The man who attempted to steal the car, 30-year-old Jordan Geddes, was charged with attempted theft of a motor vehicle, assault with a weapon and possession of break in instruments.
