RCMP are trying to locate a man from Peace River wanted on Canada-wide warrants.

Twenty-seven-year-old Steven Daniel Phair is wanted throughout the country on the following charges.

Aggravated assault (x2)
Possession of a weapon dangerous to public
Fail to attend court

Police say he’s also facing four additional charges from a separate incident and is wanted throughout Alberta on those charges.

Phair was charged with two counts of aggravated assault and a single count of possession of a weapon after two men were stabbed outside a Peace River hotel in December of 2016.

The two were eventually taken to Edmonton and Grande Prairie for treatment but were later released from hospital.

Phair was to stand trial in October of last year in Peace River, but did not show up for court.

Phair is described as Caucasian, five-foot-eleven with brown hair and green eyes.

RCMP add Phair shouldn’t be approached and anyone who sees him should dial 9-1-1.
