The prosecutor said outside of court that \u0027at this stage\u0027 the Crown has given notice it will seek an adult penalty

Terry Nickerson, the youth Crown prosecutor, indicated to the court that he expected a psychiatric assessment would be carried out.

Meanwhile, a staff member at the school said teachers were furious because of what they described as a lack of support from the administration. The teacher said staff had gathered at the school with the understanding that classes would resume in the afternoon, but the teacher later said classes were cancelled once it became clear the teachers were still angry.

On Monday, police said officers were dispatched to the school at 9:20 a.m., and the suspect was arrested outside the school 11 minutes later. A spokeswoman for the school authority confirmed the suspect was in the school office at the time of the stabbings.
