An Abbotsford man has now been charged in relation to an assault that occurred at a Skytrain station in September.

Metro Vancouver Transit Police announced Thursday (April 23) that Richard Hoff, 39, has been charged with unlawfully causing bodily harm.

He remains in custody at this time.

The incident took place Sept. 5, 2025 at the Metrotown SkyTrain Station in Burnaby.

Police at the time reported that a physical altercation broke out and a 70-year-old woman who was standing nearby – and not involved in the dispute – was slashed in the leg with an edged weapon.

The individuals involved in the fight ran away. Two men and a woman were later arrested, and two discarded weapons were recovered nearby.

The injured woman was taken to hospital for treatment.

According to the provincial court database, Hoff has multiple prior convictions for offences such as assault, assault with a weapon, uttering threats, break-and-enter, theft, resisting or obstructing a peace officer, being unlawfully at large, and breaching his conditions.
