Over the weekend, Lennox and Addington OPP arrested a man they claim was an accomplice to a road rage stabbing in Amherstview last week. Since the arrest, OPP have executed a search warrant at the apartment of the couple accused of the stabbing, where they found multiple firearms and drugs.

On Thursday, 22-year-old Breanne Hass allegedly stabbed a 47-year-old man in Amherstiew while the two were arguing on Amherst Drive.

OPP said both Hass and the man were in their vehicles, but got out and continued the argument when it suddenly turned violent. Police say Hass then fled the scene and remained at large until Friday morning, when OPP arrested and charged her with aggravated assault and possession of a weapon.
