Montreal police say a 25-year-old man was arrested after allegedly stabbing three of his family members Tuesday evening.

Police were called to a home on Jean-Pierre-Ronfard Street near de Contrecoeur Street in the Mercier–Hochelaga-Maisonneuve borough around 6:45 p.m.

When they arrived, officers found two women aged 29 and 58 and a 32-year-old man with upper body injuries. All three were sent to hospital and their lives are not in danger.

The suspect was arrested at the scene.
