Seven Charged After Brutal Midnight Attack on Rogers Road
Seven suspects have been charged following a savage attack on Rogers Road that rocked the community last month. The violent assault targeted three men around midnight on June 6, leaving one seriously injured.
Violent Ambush in Car Leaves One Kidnapped and Beaten
The victims were sitting in a vehicle when three other cars pulled up and launched a vicious attack. Two men, aged 19 and 21, suffered stab and slash wounds but managed to flee the scene. A third man, just 20 years old, was kidnapped and savagely attacked with weapons, sustaining serious injuries. Thankfully, all three are expected to survive and recover fully.
