A man in his 30s has died after a daylight stabbing Monday in a Toronto laneway, police say.
Toronto police said officers were called to the scene in the Yonge and Charles streets area, just south of Bloor Street, at 4:16 p.m. for reports a man had been assaulted.
Police said the man was taken to hospital with life-threatening injuries and it was determined he had been stabbed. Toronto paramedics confirmed to Global News they transported a patient to a trauma centre.
Investigators said he later died in hospital.
Police described the suspect as a male, six feet tall, who was wearing denim blue jeans, a grey windbreaker, a red backpack and dark shoes.
They also said it is unclear what, if any, relationship the victim and the suspect had to each other.
Homicide detectives have taken charge of the investigation.
