3 people injured, apartment building evacuated after armed assault in Saint-Laurent
Three people were injured and about 100 were evacuated from an apartment building Sunday morning after a fight broke out at a party in Montreal's Saint-Laurent borough.
Montreal police (SPVM) officers were called to the building on Crépeau Street around 4 a.m. Upon arrival, they discovered three people with injuries, one of whom was stabbed.
The victims were transported to hospital, and their lives are considered out of danger, according to the SPVM.
Two men, ages 28 and 26, were arrested at the scene.
Police say the event does not appear to be linked to organized crime, drugs, or a hate incident.
Although a fire alarm had gone off, causing the evacuation of about 100 people from the building, there was no evidence of a fire in the vicinity.
Most had returned home by mid-morning on Sunday.
The investigation is ongoing.
