Man in hospital in Nanaimo stabbing

Darpan News Desk The Canadian Press, 16 Jul, 2024 05:02 PM
  • Man in hospital in Nanaimo stabbing

A 52-year-old Nanaimo man was taken to hospital with non-life-threatening injuries after an early morning stabbing last Friday.

R-C-M-P say it happened along Fitzwilliam Street in downtown Nanaimo, and the victim was not co-operative with investigators. 

They say the man told police that his attacker had run away, but he would not provide further details or a description of the suspect.

The Mounties are still searching for the attacker after police service dogs failed to pick up a lead, and anyone with information is asked to contact police.
