Man stabbed in eastern Ville-Marie

A man in his sixties was stabbed Friday evening in eastern Ville‑Marie and is in critical condition.

As Kevin commented earlier this month, “the reason you hear about violent crime is because it is rare. We live in a city where a non-lethal stabbing makes headlines.” We have not had a homicide in Montreal since New Year’s day, and even arsons (reported ones, anyway) are down.
