The father and son were charged as a result of a stabbing on Saturday. The victim has not yet been identified although it is expected his name will be released today.

ARMED ROBBERY THIS MORNING
At about 6:15 this morning, a lone male youth robbed the Esso station at the corner of Pim and Bruce Streets. The suspect produced a handgun and demanded money. The clerk turned over a small amount of cash to the suspect who then fled south on Pim. Police subsequently arrested a male who matched the description. He was found to have the money and a weapon on his person. He will appear in court today.
