Charges are pending after a student was stabbed at a Calgary public school on Tuesday.
Calgary police say charges are pending after a student was stabbed at a local public school on Tuesday.The student suffered minor injuries and was treated on scene by paramedics. EMS say the 15-year-old victim was not taken to hospital and instead released into his parent's care. After reviewing CCTV footage, officers were able to identify a potential suspect and determined he had left the area after the attack.
The incident happened outside the school, and Gorkoff says the subsequent lockdown lasted approximately 30 minutes. "Our priority at Jack James High School is to maintain a safe and caring school environment for all students and staff," she said. "I want to reassure you that all other students are safe and classes proceeded as scheduled this afternoon."
A Calgary Board of Education critical incident response team member is on site to provide additional support to any students who need it.
