Three suspects charged after woman stabbed, robbed in west end
Three males, including a 16 year old, are facing charges after they allegedly stabbed a woman and stole property during a west end robbery over the weekend.
According to the Windsor Police Service, shortly before 5 a.m. on Saturday, officers were dispatched to a residence in the 3200-block of College Avenue for a report of a stabbing.
