The victim left the property and was later treated by EMS and then air lifted to The University of Alberta Hospital in stable condition. The injures sustained were severe but non-life threatening.
The youth, who can't be identified under the Youth Criminal Justice Act, was arrested and will be answering to charges in St Paul Provincial Court on Sept. 1.
