New details of a 2023 fatal stabbing — where the victim walked into Boston Pizza to get help — emerged at Saskatoon Provincial Court, during a sentencing hearing on Monday.

Angose ‘Goose’ Standingwater was stabbed in the chest while in the backseat of a moving van on May 20, 2023.

The 30-year-old was left at the intersection of Clarence Avenue South and Brand Road, court heard.

Standingwater walked into the Boston Pizza “leaving a blood trail as he went,” according to the case’s agreed statement of facts.

He received CPR from a restaurant customer before paramedics arrived and declared him dead at the scene.

Ashton Wolfe, 20, admitted to stabbing Standingwater and pleaded guilty to manslaughter.

Wolfe was handed a nine-year prison sentence, as part of a joint sentencing submission.

“This was an unprovoked attack while a van was being stolen,” Crown Prosecutor Oryn Holm told the court.
