Police: Victim uncooperative in Ontario stabbing investigation

A police investigation into a stabbing in Ontario last month is currently inactive because the stabbing victim is unwilling to cooperate with police.

Ontario police Officer Dereck Anthony said today that the victim, who was stabbed Feb. 11 in the area of Ontario Mills Parkway and Milliken Avenue, is unwilling to cooperate with police "as far as providing statements or identifying the suspect."

Clyde Michael Johnson, 28, was arrested Feb. 11 and charged with assault with a deadly weapon, but prosecutors dropped charges against him on March 4, saying they didn't have enough evidence to proceed.

"We don't really have a case if we have a victim who won't cooperate," said Anthony, a department spokesman.

Al Parra, the investigating detective, did not say why the victim was unwilling to cooperate, Anthony said.
