A 43-year-old man who allegedly stabbed a woman with a knife during a domestic dispute entered not-guilty pleas Tuesday, with a trial set for Nov. 29.

James Walker of Medicine Hat faces charges of aggravated assault, assault and several breaches after being arrested in the early morning of Feb. 15.

Police stated they responded to an Assist EMS call for service after a report of a woman requiring medical assistance in the 100 block of Second Street NE.

Upon arriving at the scene, police learned the woman and a man had been involved in a domestic dispute, and the woman had been stabbed. The woman was transported to hospital for treatment of her injuries.

Following a hearing in March, Walker was granted bail on a $3,500 no-cash surety put forward by a friend, who will allow him to live with her under 24/7 house arrest. Walker is only allowed to leave the residence while under supervision of the surety.
