A stabbing in Montreal’s Saint-Laurent borough left a man seriously injured on Sunday.

Montreal police (SPVM) say a 911 call placed around 2:35 p.m. brought officers to an apartment on Alexis Nihon Boulevard near Cote-de-Liesse Road.

A 23-year-old man found in the apartment was taken to hospital in critical condition, said SPVM spokesperson Jean-Pierre Brabant.

The suspect, a 20-year-old man, was arrested on scene.

It’s believed a fight escalated between the two men and both were stabbed. The suspect's injuries were minor, say police.

The investigation is ongoing.
