Officials say two people have been seriously injured after separate stabbings in Toronto Tuesday evening.

Emergency crews were first called to the area of Broadview Avenue and Queen Street East at around 8:10 p.m.

A Toronto police spokesperson told Global News it’s unclear where exactly the stabbing happened, but that the victim was found by a passerby.

Police with 51 Division said a male, who had already been stabbed, got on public transit a few blocks west at Parliament and Queen streets when he collapsed shortly after.

A spokesperson for Toronto Paramedics said the victim was taken to a trauma centre with serious injuries.

About 40 minutes later, police said first responders were called to the lobby of a building near George Street and Dundas Street East.

Officers could be seen blocking off an area in front of Seaton House.

Police with 51 Division said there was a dispute between two men when one man pulled out a knife and stabbed the other man.

The Toronto Paramedics spokesperson said a man was rushed to a trauma centre with serious injuries.

Police said the man’s injuries have since improved and he is now in stable condition as of Wednesday morning.

51 Division investigators also said one person has been arrested and that there are no other suspects.

As of Tuesday night, there was no indication the stabbings were connected.
