A man has been sentenced to time served and two years of probation for a stabbing near Mill Lake Park in Abbotsford a year ago.
Tristan Belhumeur, 22, was sentenced Aug. 29 in Abbotsford provincial court after previously pleading guilty to aggravated assault and breaching a release order.
Two counts of assault with a weapon and a second breach charge from that same incident were stayed.
