Police say they’re looking for two suspects after a stabbing outside of a transit bus in Vaughan on Monday, one of whom recorded the incident on his cellphone before fleeing the scene.
York Regional Police said that at around 1:10 p.m., officers were called to the area of Yonge Street and Royal Orchard Boulevard in Thornhill for a report of a stabbing.
A man was found suffering from stab wounds and was taken to hospital with serious but non-life-threatening injuries.
Police said it was determined that the stabbing happened outside of a Viva bus.
The victim and the second male suspect were waiting at a bus stop, police said. The first male suspect exited the bus when it came to a stop before stabbing the victim multiple times, police allege.
The second suspect allegedly recorded the incident on his cellphone. Both fled the scene on foot before officers arrived.
Police described the first suspect as five-feet-ten-inches tall and having short dark hair and braids.
The second suspect was described as tall and was wearing sunglasses.
