BRAMPTON, Ont. – A clash between two opposing groups outside a Sikh temple in Brampton, Ont., on Sunday afternoon has resulted in three people facing a slew of charges.
The fight broke out at the Guru Nanak Sikh Centre, but officers were already at the temple to keep order because of an ongoing internal dispute.
Around 3:30 p.m., a scuffle broke out between several groups and weapons were used, but police managed to stop the fight.
Police say four men were taken to hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.
Harvinder Pal Khaliwal, 41, of Brampton has been charged with assault.
Satwant Deol, 25, and Tehal Shergill, 60, both of Brampton, have been charged with possession of a weapon for dangerous purpose and assault with a weapon. Shergill has also been charged with assault causing bodily harm.
