Police in New Westminster are looking for witnesses after a man was stabbed downtown on Monday night.

Police say a witness flagged down an officer outside the police station to report someone in distress and officers found the man bleeding from his abdomen.

They say it's believed that the altercation took place near the staircase from the Front Street parkade leading into Westminster Pier Park.

Sergeant Andrew Leaver says investigators believe there were a number of people who witnessed the event but have yet to speak to police.

Crown blames most of Ali murder trial delays on defence and 'extraordinary events'
A Crown lawyer says holdups to the trial of a man found guilty of murdering a 13-year-old Burnaby, B.C., girl were mostly attributable to the defence and "discrete exceptional events," as he argued against the case being thrown out over delays.  Daniel Porte told a B.C. Supreme Court judge that if those events were subtracted, the remaining delays to Ibrahim Ali's trial would have amounted to about 25 months, falling within the allowable threshold.
