The man accused of nearly killing former mayor Will Flanagan in an apparently unprovoked stabbing last month continues to be held without bail after an initial 20-day mental health evaluation.

Corree K. Gonzales, 31, was held without bail and sent to Bridgewater State Hospital on Sept. 22 to assess his competency to stand trial. At a hearing in Fall River District Court on Monday, Nov. 10, Gonzales was ordered committed without bail to the Bristol County House of Correction.

He is due back in court on Dec. 4 for a status review hearing.

Prosecutors allege that on the afternoon of Oct. 20, Gonzales ran up to Flanagan who was walking on Hartwell Street and, with no evident provocation, stabbed him five times in the face and neck.
