The student was approached by a small group, wearing ski masks, in the school parking lot around 11:20 a.m. and then attacked, according to officials. The victim was hit with a hammer and a knife was also at the scene, according to a Central Saanich police officer. Paul Brailey. The perpetrators left the school and the student was taken to hospital for treatment of minor injuries, including injuries to the face that required stitches, according to police. The student is now at home with his parents and will be fine, although he has probably been shaken, said district inspector Dave Eberwein. “It’s worrying for everyone and it would be scary for students, and I’m sure some families are worried,” he told CHEK News. “But I can assure them that our process and protocols worked as they should.” The incident was immediately reported to the police, who are now investigating and trying to identify the group. Eberwein said they may have been students from other schools or community members, but they are not believed to be Stelly students. Central Saanich police issued a tweet on Saturday asking any witnesses to the attack or those who may have video with a dashcam camera to show up. They added that the suspects are believed to be linked to an older model black BMW sedan with glossy wheels. “We believe the vehicle was probably immobilized along Stelly’s between the Saanich showroom and Wallace Drive,” Brailey said.
