Case for attempted murder suspect kicked down the road
The man charged with attempted murder after he drove through multiple pedestrians back on October 10th had his court appearance adjourned today.
Forty-seven-year-old Christopher Hegg of Calgary faces multiple counts of attempted murder after he allegedly struck multiple pedestrians in the parking lot of the Visit-Lethbridge-dot-com Arena. Three adults sustained serious but non-life-threatening injuries and were transported to hospital in stable condition. The suspect then struck a Subaru Outback near the arena in a hit and run, then proceeded to threaten an employee at a convenience store before he eventually left with merchandise without paying.
Hegg’s case at the Lethbridge Courthouse was adjourned Tuesday morning to January 6th. A psychological assessment was previously requested by his lawyer but has not yet been completed.
Hegg remains in custody and is facing a total of 14 charges.
