A suspect in an alleged slashing assault and robbery at Canadian Tire earlier this year continued to frustrate the judicial process in yet another fizzled attempt at a bail hearing Thursday.

Colin Jaffar Rogers, 28, of Westbrook Lane in Fredericton, was brought to Fredericton provincial court in person and in custody, scheduled to go through a bail hearing.
