Officials say three people, including two teenagers, have been injured after a triple stabbing in Mississauga early Friday and a man has been arrested.
The stabbing happened on Consort Crescent, near Mavis Road and Dundas Street, at around 12:30 a.m., paramedics said.
Paramedics said they transported an 18-year-old man and a 40-year-old woman to hospital with serious but non-life-threatening injuries. A 16-year-old girl was taken to a trauma centre in Toronto, paramedics said.
In a later update, Peel Regional Police said the woman remains in hospital in serious but stable condition, the male teen was medically cleared and the teen girl is in stable, non-life threatening condition.
Global News was at the scene covering the investigation when reporter Jaden Lee-Lincoln walked up to a man to ask if he lived in the area.
“I believe they’re looking for me,” he told her.
The man then slowly approached officers, who arrested him. He was put into the back of a police cruiser that drove off, Lee-Lincoln said.
Investigators confirmed to Global News he was the suspect they were searching for and there are no outstanding suspects.
Police also said the intimate partner violence unit with Peel Regional Police is investigating.
In an update on Monday, police said 43-year-old Ghazanfar Ali is facing several charges including three counts of attempted murder, three counts of aggravated assault, breach of probation and assault with a weapon against another occupant of the home who was assaulted with a knife but was not stabbed or injured.
