Police have charged a youth in relation to an assault that occurred in Bedford last week.
Police received a report of an assault that occurred on February 11 at The HRM 4-pad on Gary Martin Drive. During a game two youths, who were players on opposing teams, were involved in a physical altercation. After the game the same two players passed each other when leaving the rink. One of the youths struck the other with their hockey stick. The victim was taken to hospital for treatment of what are believed to be non-life-threatening injuries.
A 17-year-old youth is scheduled to appear at a later date in Halifax provincial youth court to face charges of assault with a weapon and assault causing bodily harm.
