EDITOR’S NOTE: This story has been updated.
Winnipeg police are investigating an assault at a downtown night club on New Year’s Eve.
Just before 3:30 a.m., police were notified a man arrived at a Winnipeg hospital with a stab wound. He was in unstable condition, but has since been upgraded to stable condition.
Police tape surrounded the Palomino Club on Main Street mid-New Year’s Day. Evidence markers littered the sidewalk and a police cruiser was parked at the scene.
“We’re in the early stages of an investigation into an assault that may have happened at a bar in the 400 block of Main Street overnight,” Winnipeg Police Service Const. Jay Murray wrote in an email.
