One person was taken to hospital and another arrested following a reported stabbing in Lindsay, Ont. early Saturday.
The Kawartha Lakes Police Service said that at around 2:30 a.m., a stabbing was reported in the area of Russell Street West and York Street South near the downtown core.
Police say officers learned that during a physical altercation between two males, a third male approached the duo and allegedly stabbed one of them in the back before fleeing.
The victim was transported to Ross Memorial Hospital with non-life-threatening injuries, police say.
Officers found the suspect a short distance away and arrested him. Police say during a search of the man, officers found the knife they say was used in the incident.
A 22-year-old Lindsay man was charged with assault with a weapon, assault causing bodily harm and possession of a weapon for a dangerous purpose.
He was held in custody for a bail hearing later Saturday.
