A Winnipeg couple says they’re trying to move forward after they were attacked during a random home invasion Monday.

Charat Singh Cheema and Gurbachan Kaur Cheema were in their living room when a stranger entered their home. The man attacked Gurbachan, and when Charat tried to intervene, he stabbed him with a kitchen knife. “I saw … blood on my neck, it started bleeding, and I realized he stabbed [me] already,” Singh Cheema said.

The couple spoke to Global News with help from their close friend Kuljeet Kaur, who lives with them.

The suspect, 23-year-old Ryan Chase George, is facing three charges in connection with the invasion, including assault with a weapon.
