UPDATE: Family and friends of the man who suffered life threatening stab wounds on January 12th, are thankful to everyone for their prayers and well wishes.
He has fought hard and pulled through! He is off life support, breathing on is own and now even out of the ICU. All tubes and apparatus have been removed and he is awake after three weeks of medical sedation.
As anyone can imagine after being asleep for three weeks, he is a bit grumpy and disoriented. Nevertheless close friends, who are restricted from visiting due to dangers of infection, are thrilled that they have received a couple of texts from him.
Sault police have not released any further information to the public about the incident.

Maybe he meant the hospital to visit?
I know him 😂 not like hes a stranger im telling
So bad guys in the sault
Penalties are not near stiff enough for people that use knives to stab others, it is just a deadly as using a gun but treated a lot less seriously.
It should not be.
Happens all the time in T.B
Karyn James my prayers are with your cousin and your family for him to pull through ..

An update on the victim was posted below the news story on our website, Facebook doesn’t auto-post comments from our website, so we will share it here:
The victom is still in hospital under sedation. he is young, strong his heart and lungs are good and he is expected to pull through. a stupid argument over a noise complaint changed the course of both of these mens lives. thoughts and prayers are with you my love. we will get through this.

My cousin comes from a long line of fighters and survivors. We believe he will pull thru. But it’s in his hands.
