Calgary police want to talk to a witness of a double stabbing that happened downtown at the end of August.

On Aug. 31 before 11:30 p.m., police responded to 8 Avenue S.W. and 5 Street S.W. for reports that two men had been stabbed, according to a Tuesday police news release.

Both were taken to hospital with non-life-threatening injuries, officers said.

“The victims had a number of interactions with other pedestrians as well as motorists,” police said.

Police released pictures of a man they believe has information about the interaction between the victims and the attacker.
