Two individuals, a 68-year-old man and a 66-year-old woman, sustained critical injuries in a stabbing incident that occurred early Saturday morning in the Saint-Leonard borough of Montreal. Montreal Police responded to a distress call around 5:20 a.m. reporting the injuries within an apartment on Viau Boulevard, near Jean-Rivard Street.
Upon arrival, officers discovered the man and woman with stab wounds to their upper bodies and immediately transported them to the hospital in critical condition. Initial findings from the investigation suggested the potential involvement of a male suspect in the stabbing.

To facilitate a comprehensive inquiry into the matter, a police cordon was set up in the vicinity, allowing investigators to meticulously examine the scene and piece together the events leading up to the violent attack.
As the investigation remains ongoing, authorities are working diligently to uncover further details surrounding the stabbing incident.
