Montreal police (SPVM) are investigating two separate assaults that led to stabbings where both victims were sent to the hospital.
The SPVM reported that a conflict at a bar led to a 33-year-old man being stabbed around 1:45 a.m. on Sunday morning.
Emergency responders found the man near the intersection of Monk and Jolicoeur streets in the Ville-Emard neighbourhood.
The man was transported to the hospital with non-life-threatening upper body injuries.
Police located a 36-year-old man who was arrested and transported to a detention centre.
SPVM spokesperson Sabrina Gauthier said police received a 911 call at 5:15 a.m. reporting that someone had been attacked by a sharp weapon.
Police responded to Poupart Street near Fontaine Street in the Sainte-Marie neighbourhood and found a 34-year-old man with upper body injuries caused by a sharp weapon.
He was transported to the hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.
“He was with a friend, a girl, and when he went to an apartment, he had a conflict with someone inside,” said Gauthier.
There is a perimeter set up as police believe they have a suspect.
The investigation is ongoing.
