Regina Police have laid charges against both individuals involved in an attempted vehicle theft turned assault on June 26.
Police responded to a weapons-related call on Dawson Crescent, in the northern area of Regina, at approximately 4 a.m. on Saturday morning. Initial reports indicated that an adult male, 33-year-old Jordan Wade Geddes, had been injured by stabbing.
Officers provided first aid until EMS was able to transport Geddes to hospital with serious but not life-threatening injuries.
During their investigation, police uncovered evidence that Geddes was attempting to steal a car in a nearby parking lot when the vehicle’s owner, also an adult male, arrived to witness the alleged theft.
The vehicle owner, identified as 44-year-old Vincent Kakakaway of Regina, is alleged to have stabbed Geddes after an altercation.
Police have arrested Kakakaway and charged him with aggravated assault. He made his first court appearance on Monday morning.
Geddes has also been charged in relation to the altercation and alleged attempts to steal the vehicle, with counts of assault with a weapon, attempted theft of a motor vehicle and possession of break-in instruments.
Geddes will make his court appearance once released from hospital.
