Trail Of Blood Left Outside Princess Street Building

Police are gone but a heavy trail of dripping blood starting from an alleyway leading to an entrance on Princess street remains.

Police are remaining tight lipped as to why there were two police cars and the forensic services blocking 80 Princess street between 9:30 and noon today. A small pool of blood has soaked a blue mat in the entrance way of the building.

The owner of the Heartbreak Boutique says she also has no clue as to why police blocked of the split entrance between her store entrance and apartment units.

Pamela Wheaton tells CHSJ through e-mail that the police presence has nothing to do with her store.

We have made calls to police regarding the situation.

Police are interviewing people from the scene of a weekend double stabbing that resulted in the death of an 18-year-old teenage boy.

The second stabbing victim -- a 21-year-old man -- is still recovering in hospital.
Police say the stabbing occurred at 348 Prince Street West but are not sure whether it was inside the home or outside. CHSJ news has been told by the homeowner that it did not take place inside and the 18-year-old victim asked him for help.
 
Police don't believe this is a random act and say the two knew each other.

Anyone with any information regarding this incident is asked to contact police.

Time Change Affects Alertness

You're not the only one feeling the effects of the time change!

UNBSJ psychology professor Dr. Michael Bradley tells CHSJ news you're mood could go up and, more often than not, down. The biggest difference is a change in judgement and alertness. Bradley says there's evidence during both the fall and spring time changes that car and household accidents go up.


Bradley says there's not too much you can do to fight these side effects, except to be more careful and wait until you're back to normal in 3-5 days.



Bradley finishes by saying anything that throws off your schedule will most likely bring you down slightly, rather than pick you up.
