A brutal stabbing was reported right outside of a east Hamilton high school on Tuesday, in which a mother witnessed her son bleeding out from what police are calling a pre-planned homicide. On October 8th at around 1:30 pm, emergency units were called for a reported stabbing beside Sir Winston Churchill Secondary, and arrived to find a 14 year old Devan Selvey being held by his mother, clearly suffering from puncture wounds. Shortly after being transported to a hospital, Devan had succumbed to his injuries. According to CTV news, two suspects have been arrested and charged with first-degree murder, an 18-year-old male and a 14-year-old male, who’s identities cannot be released due to the governments youth act. Since this tragic stabbing, Devan’s mother Shari-Ann Sullivan has made a statement claiming that Devan had been a victim to on-going bullying, and that she had recently been notified by the school about the situation, but was not given very much detail on the matter. Sgt. Steve Berziuk of the Hamilton PD made a statement to the public saying that investigators were “satisfied based on evidence that there was some element of pre-planning and pre-meditation to his homicide,” while he was at a news conference on Tuesday afternoon.
