At around 8:45 p.m. on Dec. 19, Saskatoon Police were called to the 300 block of Avenue M North for a report of a recent assault in the area. When police arrived, they found a 52-year-old victim suffering from a minor stab wound. Medavie Health Services West medically assessed the victim before transporting him to hospital for treatment of his non-life-threatening injury. It has not been determined if the victim and suspect are known to one another.
Later, around 11:15 p.m. the same evening, police were called to the 1100 block of Avenue F North for a report of an injured person.
