Two men are wanted by police in connection with a Shuswap stabbing last month.

Salmon Arm RCMP say charges have been approved against three men in the incident, which happened in Blind Bay on Aug. 16.

According to police, one of the three was arrested in Chase, but the whereabouts of the other two are unknown.

RCMP called it a serious incident, noting the victim was stabbed several times, reportedly at a carwash.

The man, however, despite bleeding heavily, managed to make it to a home on Forest Drive for help.

At the time, police thought it was a targeted incident and said three suspects were involved.
