Montreal police (SPVM) say a 17-year-old was stabbed outside a high school on Monday afternoon.
Authorities said the victim sustained wounds to the upper body.
It happened around 4:40 p.m. outside École secondaire Calixa-Lavallée in Montreal North.
SPVM say a fight escalated between a group of young people about a possible bicycle theft.
The victim was transported to hospital, and as of Tuesday morning, his life is no longer considered in danger.
A long blade may have been used and reportedly the teen was stabbed in the back.
There could be more than one suspect and they could also be minors – but the main suspect may only be 12 years old, authorities explain.
No arrests have been made as of yet.
