RCMP Arrest Bathurst Man Wanted In Stabbing

A Bathurst man wanted on a Canada-wide warrant has been arrested in connection with a stabbing earlier this month.

RCMP say 36-year-old Zachariah Russell was apprehended Tuesday at a home in the Bathurst area.

Russell faces a number of charges including aggravated assault, two counts of uttering threats and mischief.

Police say a suspect fled on July 8th after reports of a man being stabbed several times outside a home in Gloucester Junction.

The victim was injured but later released from hospital.

Russell will appear in Bathurst court on Wednesday.
