A 23-year-old man is in hospital after a stabbing in Montreal’s Plateau-Mont-Royal borough early Friday morning. At 3:30 a.m., Montreal police (SPVM) officers say they were approached by a man on the corner of Saint-Laurent Boulevard and Prince-Arthur Street. “[He] reported that he had been the victim of an armed assault by a suspect who had fled the scene,” said Manuel Couture, a spokesperson with Montreal police. “The victim sustained a stab wound to the upper body.” The man was transferred to hospital, but his life is not considered to be in danger.
