Loveys, 22, is charged with trying to kill three people with a vehicle on Bartlett Place last year. Two of them received serious but non-life-threatening injuries and the third was treated in hospital and released.
Loveys had originally been charged with dangerous driving and assault with a weapon. The more serious attempted murder charges were filed four months later, after a more extensive police investigation.
In total, Loveys now stands charged with three counts of attempted murder, three counts of dangerous operation of a motor vehicle and three counts of uttering threats.
The preliminary inquiry — held to determine if there is enough evidence for a case to go to trial — is expected to conclude Thursday.
