Toronto police say two people were injured in two overnight stabbings that occurred within half an hour of each other on Tuesday.

A man was found with serious injuries and taken to hospital, police said.
The suspect fled the area and as of Tuesday morning, police were still looking for him. Police believe he is armed.
About half an hour later, just before 4 a.m., police say there was a second stabbing inside a building at Markham Road and Tuxedo Court.
A woman was found suffering serious but non-life-threatening injuries.
She was taken to hospital for treatment and is expected to recover, police said.
One person was taken into custody. Police initially said they are not looking for any other suspects but later said they are searching for a second suspect.
