Nearly two years after a stabbing in Prince Albert’s Superstore parking lot, the person alleged to be responsible for the attack may face trial.

Eagleclaw Sanderson’s matters were discussed Wednesday morning at Prince Albert Provincial Court and a not guilty plea was entered to a charge of aggravated assault.

The 24-year-old is also accused of over half a dozen breaches relating to failures to show up for court after being granted bail. Those charges will also be addressed when Sanderson returns to court May 21.

The stabbing in Prince Albert occurred in March 2022.

A bystander who stepped in to defend two strangers that were being bullied, was stabbed near the heart during the confrontation. Fortunately the man’s injury was not life-threatening.

As many as three people had come after the bystander, and two were knocked out by him.

A video recording of the incident had been shared on social media over a 1,000 times,
