The investigation revealed an altercation began in an apartment and led into the hallways where the parties separated.

The 28-year-old man was arrested and held in custody after his release from hospital. He appeared in Prince Albert Provincial Court on Monday, for charges of Aggravated Assault and Assault with a Weapon. Jake McLeod was remanded to Wednesday morning.

The incident prompted a number of social media posts, and residents who live at Carlton Park apartments expressed concerns relating to getting help from the owners (Weidner) to clean up the mess that was left behind.
