A man has been taken to Sunnybrook Hospital in Toronto with stab wounds following a fight in a Markham parking lot, York Regional Police Duty Insp. Ron Bentham said.

“At about 2:13 this morning, we responded to a disturbance in the Markham Road and 14th Avenue area. When we arrived, we found a man, a 27-year-old male, suffering from a stab wound and other injuries,” he said.

“He’s been transported to Sunnybrook Hospital in serious condition.”

The stabbing took place in a plaza parking lot, Bentham said.

“We don’t know too much yet. We got a call about a disturbance, some fighting in the parking lot,” he said.

“We show up and we find this guy there and we’re trying to put the pieces together.”

5 District criminal investigation bureau is investigating the stabbing and looking for witnesses, Bentham said.

“They are trying to come up with some suspect descriptions” to release to the public, he said.

A car involved in the incident was seen being towed from the scene.

An officer at the scene told a reporter the stabbing took place in or around the car, but Bentham could not confirm that.
