Terrance Alan Jones of Edmonton is in custody after he surrendered at the Salmon Arm detachment, police said Tuesday.

He was one of three men charged with attempted murder following a vicious stabbing in the Shuswap.

The 30-year-old victim survived the Aug. 16 attack in Blind Bay, with police calling it a targeted incident.

Jordy Kyle Moyan, 33, of Kelowna was arrested in Chase on Aug. 20.

A few weeks later, Mounties issued arrest warrants for Jones and Alexander Vittal Boucher, 36, of Enderby.

Boucher, was arrested on Sept. 18 in Coldstream after being spotted by an off-duty officer.

The hunt for Boucher and Jones spanned a month and involved RCMP jurisdictions across the Shuswap and North Okanagan, police said.
