Montreal police (SPVM) say a 21-year-old man is in hospital after a stabbing in Montreal’s Ville-Marie borough Wednesday night.
Multiple 911 calls were made at 10 p.m. about an armed assault on the corner of Sainte-Catherine and Montcalm streets.
“Police responded to several 911 calls concerning a fight involving several people,” said Manuel Couture, a SPVM spokesperson.
He added that upon arrival of officers to the scene, a suspect who fled on foot was pursued by police.
“He was finally arrested, not far from the scene,” explained Couture. “He had to be subdued with a stun gun.”
At the initial scene, police had located the 21-year-old victim with an upper body injury caused by a sharp object.
