A 34-year-old man from Humboldt has been charged with the attempted murder of his wife.
On April 7, at approximately 5:30 p.m., RCMP in Humboldt received a 9-1-1 call from a child, who reported that a domestic dispute was occurring at a residence on 7th St. in Humboldt.
Members from the Humboldt detachment quickly arrived at the home on the 1000 block and entered the residence.
A 27-year-old female, a resident of the home, was identified by police at the home. She was in need of medical attention and emergency medical services began treatment for her injuries and transported her to a Saskatoon hospital.
It is believed that the woman was stabbed, but that has not been confirmed by police.
A 34-year-old male was arrested at the scene and taken into custody. He was also taken to hospital for treatment of his injuries, then released back into police custody.
The man and the woman were married, police confirmed.
Brandon Carelse, 34, is now facing charges of attempted murder and breach of probation under the Canadian Criminal Code.
He appeared in Saskatoon Provincial Court on April 8, and again on April 11. During his second court appearance, he was ordered to appear again on April 12 for a show cause or bail hearing. At press time, he remained in police custody, and had not entered a plea to the charges.
Assisting in the investigation of this incident were members of the RCMP Saskatoon Major Crime Unit, as well as Humboldt-Lanigan detachment and Saskatoon Forensix Identification Services.
