Toronto police are investigating two separate stabbings that took place in South Etobicoke on Sunday evening.
Officers were initially called to Park Lawn Road and Berry Road just after 7:00 p.m. for reports of a stabbing.
Police say the victim was approached by a group of youths and stabbed. The individual was located and transported to a hospital with non-life-threatening injuries. No suspect descriptions were provided.
Less than two hours later police were called about another stabbing just a few kilometers away, near Lake Shore Boulevard West and Douglas Boulevard.
Police say a man was located with a stab wound and transported to a hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.
Authorities say the suspect is still outstanding. He is described as a male between the ages of 35 and 40. He is approximately five-foot-eight and was last seen wearing a black jacket and red Nike shoes.
It is unclear if the two incidents are related. No other details were released.
