Stabbing suspect in Quesnel sentenced to prison time

A suspect has been sentenced in connection with a stabbing in Quesnel.

31-year old Trenton Stump pleaded guilty back in April to a charge of aggravated assault.

A charge of assault with a weapon was stayed.

Stump has been sentenced to 679 days in jail, 3 years probation and was also handed a 10-year firearms prohibition.

He was arrested back in February after Quesnel RCMP were called to Seasons House in the 100 block of Carson Avenue.

He was transported by ambulance to GR Baker Hospital in serious condition.
