Police Investigating Multiple Weapons Offences

 The Regina Police Service is investigating four offences involving bladed weapons over the past four days.

Shortly before 5:00 a.m. on Friday, May 1, 2025, officers were called to the 1900 block of Scarth Street for a report of an injured person. When officers arrived, they located an adult male victim lying on the ground who had a deep laceration to his hand and appeared to have been bear sprayed. He told police he had been attacked by a group of teenaged males. The male victim was taken to hospital by EMS where he was treated for his injuries, which appeared to be non-life-threatening.

At approximately 5:20 a.m. on May 1, 2026, officers were called to the hospital for a report of an adult male who had arrived in the ER with lacerations on his hand. The victim told police he and his friends were in Victora Park when they were approached by an adult male suspect who had a machete. The suspect swung the weapon at the victim, hitting him in the hands. The male suspect fled the scene. The victim was taken to hospital by his friends to be treated for his injuries.

At this time, both occurrences are under investigation. It is unknown if they are related.

On Saturday, May 2, 2026, at approximately 3:00 a.m., officers were called to the area of 5^th Avenue and Athol Street for a report of an injured male.
