Police say they’ve arrested one of two “armed and dangerous” suspects believed to be responsible for a stabbing at a bar in Hamilton’s west end on in early October.
Investigators say Fuhill Badei turned himself in at the Hamilton Police Mountain Station on Thursday. He was wanted for several firearms-related offences and assault.
He made his first court appearance at the John Sopinka Courthouse later in the day.
Badei is one of two men who allegedly brandished both a knife and a handgun and stabbed another man at the West Lounge Café at 807 Main St. W., on Oct.5, according to detectives.
20-year-old Joseph Barham-Ferguson remains outstanding. He’s considered armed and dangerous and if observed police are advising not to approach but to call 911 immediately.
Barham-Ferguson is also facing charges of aggravated assault and failure to comply with a youth sentence.
