A man has been arrested days after stabbings at three different homes on a northern Saskatchewan First Nation.

Ryan Lachance had been wanted by RCMP for charges including aggravated assault and robbery in the stabbings last Saturday on Big River First Nation.

The 29-year-old was arrested at a home on the First Nation and is now facing additional charges.

RCMP said on Tuesday that the third stabbing victim was determined to be a suspect in the first two stabbings.

Twenty-five-year-old Jacky Lachance of Big River First Nation was arrested after being released from hospital.

He was charged with aggravated assault, robbery with a weapon, and break and enter.
