“He does have some fairly serious injuries, but they’re not life threatening,” Const. David Hopkinson told AM640.
Police said two more people were transported to hospital. A second victim suffered injuries from a stun gun and from being struck by a metal object, while a third victim was sent to hospital for observation.
