A teenager could be facing criminal charges after he allegedly stabbed a woman and her dog in South Vancouver.
Police said a 14-year-old boy allegedly pulled a knife on a 32-year-old woman, stabbed her in the hand and then stabbed her dog near the Marine Drive SkyTrain station just after 10 p.m. Friday.
The victim was sent to the hospital for treatment. Her dog, which police described as a medium-sized mixed breed, was bleeding heavily and rushed to an emergency veterinarian.
