REGINA, Sask. — Regina police have charged four men following an incident in the Heritage neighbourhood that left three people hospitalized early Friday morning.
Regina police say that around 12 a.m. on Oct. 16, officers were called to the 800 block of Victoria Avenue following the report of a weapons offence. The caller reported that a man had been assaulted with a bladed weapon.
