Stabbing leaves Vancouver man in life-threatening condition
Victim is in hospital 'battling for his life,' after Sunday morning stabbing
A 27-year-old man suffered life-threatening injuries after a stabbing on the Downtown Eastside Sunday, Vancouver police said.
Investigators are asking the public to come forward if they have information about the crime.
Police said in a statement the man was stabbed early Sunday morning, April 26, near East Hastings Street and Main Street.
The victim made it to Dunlevy and East Hastings streets where he was picked up and taken to hospital.
The victim is now in hospital "battling for his life," VPD Sgt. Aaron Roed said in the statement.
Roed said the victim is expected to survive, but police have few details to go on.
"We got very little information from the person who was stabbed," Roed said. "That's why we're reaching out to the public. We know someone knows something."
The Vancouver Police Department is asking anyone with information about the crime to call their Major Crime Section at 604-717-2541 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.
