    19-year-old Surrey man was arrested after he allegedly injured a woman with a knife in downtown Vancouver on Thursday morning.


    Several residents called 911 shortly after 7 a.m. saying that they were worried about a man with a knife in the area of Hastings and Seymour.


    Police used a Taser and several bean bag rounds to take the man into custody. The man was said to be under the influence of drugs and refused to comply with commands.


    One woman suffered “very minor” injuries, police said but she refused treatment and left on her own.
