Peel Regional Police say two teens were stabbed following reports of a fight in Brampton late Monday.
Police said officers received a call just after 11 p.m. for reports of a large fight in the area of Chrysler Drive and Queen Street East.
When authorities arrived on the scene, police said two 17-year-old boys had to be rushed to hospital with stab wounds.
Initially police said only one of the victims was critically injured, but later updated the condition of the second victim to say that he was also in critical condition.
Images from the scene Tuesday morning showed a cordoned-off area in front of a Boston Pizza and evidence markers on the ground next to two vehicles in front of the restaurant.
Police said one person, a 17-year-old boy, was taken into custody in relation to the stabbing.
The incident came at the end of a violent long weekend in the Greater Toronto Area, which included numerous shootings that left 17 people injured in Toronto.
