London police also say 20-year-old Yaseen Muhammed has been charged with aggravated assault and arrest warrants, also for aggravated assault, have been issued for two other London men.

On Saturday, police said Antonio Bentley, 23, of London turned himself in to police. Bentley was arrested and charged with aggravated assault.

An arrest warrant is still issued for a third person, Trey Nichols, 26, of London. Police have not provided any photographs or suspect description.

The motive for the incident remains under investigation, police say, but “there is no indication the incident was hate-motivated.”

On Tuesday, police reported that they were called to Richmond and Kent streets just after 2:30 a.m. that day and a victim was transported to hospital with critical injuries.
