Homicide investigators say more charges have been laid against the suspect in a stabbing attack that killed one woman and injured six other people in North Vancouver in March.
A statement from the Integrated Homicide Investigation Team says five counts of attempted murder and one count of aggravated assault have been laid against Yannick Bandaogo.
A woman in her 20s was stabbed and killed near the Lynn Valley library branch on March 27.
Six other people, ranging in age from 22 to 78, were also hurt.
A charge of second-degree murder was laid within days of the attack.
Court documents show Bandaogo is scheduled to return to provincial court in North Vancouver on Oct. 7.
