A 25-year-old man is in hospital after being stabbed outside Abbotsford’s Sevenoaks Shopping Centre.
Const. Ian MacDonald with the Abbotsford Police Department (APD) said the victim is a security guard, who was checking a parking garage outside the shopping centre just before 8 p.m.
“It seemed that there was a female that was causing a bit of disturbance, there was some type of engagement between the two, and the male guard was stabbed,” he said.
