A 20-year-old Brampton man is in a St. Catharines courtroom on Wednesday facing four charges related to a stabbing at Brock University that took place in late March.
Niagara Regional police say three students were injured in a violent incident at the university’s Village residence that resulted in two being treated for stab wounds.

Investigators say the man is facing charges of robbery, assault with a weapon, aggravated assault, in addition to “fraudulently obtaining food.”
On March 21, officers were called out to the university for what was initially reported as a shooting. Upon arrival, police found three male students, in their twenties, injured.
The university’s campus was closed for about an hour back in March as police officers searched for two suspects.
