Surrey R-C-M-P say they're looking for three young female suspects after a woman was stabbed outside a home in Whalley.
Police say the woman didn't know the suspects, who are all believed to be between the ages of 15 and 20.
They say officers responded a little after midnight on October 6th to a report of an assault, and learned a bystander had taken the victim to hospital.
Police say the woman had serious stab wounds but didn't provide details about her current condition.
