A 15-year-old student accused of stabbing two staff members at Charles P. Allen High School in Bedford, N.S. will go to trial for attempted murder in March of next year. The victims, who were employees of the school, were seriously injured on March 20th but have since recovered. The suspect was in the school office with a vice-principal and the school secretary at the time of the stabbings, as confirmed by a spokeswoman for the school. The accused was treated in the hospital for stab wounds, but it is unclear how he sustained those injuries. The teenager pleaded not guilty to 11 charges on June 15th, and due to the Youth Criminal Justice Act, his identity is protected by a publication ban. On April 20th, he was deemed fit to stand trial and was sent back into custody; however, he was released on June 28th after his parents posted a $50,000 surety and agreed to a set of conditions for his release. The trial is set to begin on March 18, 2024. In addition to attempted murder, the accused has been charged with aggravated assault, possession of a dangerous weapon, carrying a concealed weapon, possession of a prohibited weapon, and knowingly possessing an unauthorized weapon. Charles P. Allen High School has approximately 1,700 students in grades 10 to 12, making it one of the largest schools in the province.
