A teenager accused of participating in a violent home invasion in Rossland last year will stand trial starting today.
The boy’s name can’t be disclosed because he was 15 at the time of the incident. He faces five charges: aggravated assault, break and enter, possessing a weapon, wearing a disguise while intending to commit a crime, and mischief.
Police said he was arrested at a home in the 1900 block of Nevada Street where a 26-year-old Beaver Falls man was stabbed. They said two masked intruders stormed into the house at about 2 a.m. on May 3, 2025. One suspect was taken into custody while the other fled.
The victim was expected to make a full recovery.
