Man in life-threatening condition and woman in serious condition, paramedics say
A woman in her 20s is dead and two other people have been hospitalized following a stabbing in North York Monday afternoon, Toronto police say.
Emergency crews were called to the scene, a massage parlour, at Dufferin Street and Wilson Avenue just after 12:30 p.m.
Police say officers found two women and a man with stab wounds.
The woman in her 20s was found inside the parlour, while the other victims — a woman in her 30s and a man in his late teens — were found outside.
Paramedics say they transported the man in life-threatening condition and a woman in serious condition to hospital.
The second woman was pronounced dead at the scene.
Insp. Darren Alldritt told reporters at the scene that it's too early to determine if the victims were related.
Alldritt said police don't yet know if the victims were working at the spa or if they were visiting the establishment.
"What I can tell you is that at this time we don't have any concern for public safety in this area," Alldritt said.
Earlier, Const. David Hopkinson told CBC Toronto that officers found a weapon close to the man, who they are treating as a suspect.
Police are asking witnessed or anyone with dashcam footage of the incident to contact 32 Division.
