TORONTO – A 25-year-old man is fighting for his life in hospital after he was stabbed in Mississauga on Saturday night.
Peel Regional Police were called to a strip plaza at 1125 Bloor Street, near Tomken Rd. at around 11 p.m.
When they arrived they found the victim suffering from stab wounds and rushed him to a nearby hospital. He was then transferred to Sunnybrook Hospital where he remains in critical condition.
Two people were arrested near the scene a short time later.
Police have released one of them but have charged the other, an 18-year-old man with aggravated assault. He was scheduled to make a court appearance on Sunday morning and police say the charges could be upgraded based on the outcome of their investigation.
Peel Regional Police continue to canvass the area and are asking witnesses to contact them.
