Montreal police are investigating after a 38-year-old man was injured Tuesday afternoon in Montreal’s Saint-Michel borough.
Montreal police spokesperson Jeanne Drouin said officers were called to the intersection of Villeray Street and Pie-IX Boulevard at around 5:15 p.m. to reports of a man with possible stab wounds.
When officers arrived at the scene, they discovered a man with injuries to the upper body.
“A sharp object might have been used by one or many suspects,” Drouin said of the victim’s injuries.
He was taken to hospital but police were waiting on medical authorities for a status update on the man’s condition.
A 42-year-old man was arrested near the scene of the alleged stabbing and taken into custody for questioning.
Drouin said investigators will be speaking to him to determine how and if he was involved in the incident.
Crime scene technicians and investigators were at the scene, where a security perimeter had been established.
