Police were called to an apartment on Camille Street, near Ouellette Avenue around 11 a.m.
There, they discovered a woman in her 30s with severe wounds to her upper body, but concious. She was rushed to hospital, where doctors do not fear for her life.
The suspect has a criminal record, according to the SPVM.

Uppon closer inspection, police confirmed it was a pellet gun.
A 40-year-old man was arrested in connection with the discovery.
The SPVM says that, for now, the stabbing and the gun arrest don't appear to be connected.
