The Saskatoon Police Service responded to several stabbing incidents on Saturday morning with the first call coming in at 7:15 a.m. from the Aspen Ridge neighbourhood.

Police responded to the 200 block of Barrett Street where they found a woman who had been stabbed and was transported to hospital with non life threatening injuries. They learned the incident took place about four blocks away in the 200 block of Forsey Avenue.

About 15 minutes later police received a report of a stabbing outside a business in the 3200 block of 22nd Street West near the Confederation shopping district where a 42 year old man had been stabbed. Officers applied medical aid until paramedics arrived and he was taken to hospital in serious but non-life-threatening condition.

And then there were two stabbings in the 1700 block of 22nd Street West. The first around 8:30 a.m. when officers responded to St. Paul’s Hospital where a 46 year old man was receiving medical care for his injuries. And at 11:30 a.m. in the same area a 25 year old man was stabbed and transported to hospital for further medical care.

While on the way to the call officers were given a suspect description and were able to locate and arrest a 23-year-old man about a block away. He is charged with aggravated assault and appears in Saskatoon Provincial Court Monday.
