CALGARY – Police have charged a man with three counts of aggravated assault for stabbings at the Calgary Stampede last month.

Police say they identified the 18-year-old following an extensive investigation that included witness interviews and camera footage.

Officers executed a search warrant of the suspect’s house and seized a folding knife and clothing they say believe are consistent with the stabbings.
