Lethbridge police have charged three people in connection with a double stabbing.

Investigators said on April 22 at around 6:30 p.m., officers responded to a report of a serious assault along Berkeley Place West.

When officers arrived, they found a 19-year-old man and 22-year-old man with severe injuries.

They were taken to Chinook Regional Hospital with multiple stab wounds that were initially believed to be life-threatening.

The 19-year-old also suffered a serious head injury and was airlifted to Calgary by STARS. Both men remain in hospital.

Police said the men had been assaulted by a group of people who were known to them. The group was located a short time later and arrested without incident.
