Montreal Police spokesperson Benoit Boiselle said the victim got into a conflict with several individuals near Crescent Street prior to the incident.

The canine unit was on the scene trying to locate evidence. The perimeter around Guy and De Maisonneuve was lifted around 8 a.m. Sunday.

The circumstances surrounding the attack are unclear to police as they say the victim is not cooperating.
