A man in his 30s is in serious condition after he was stabbed repeatedly with a machete near Moss Park Friday, paramedics said.

Police were called to the scene inside the Maxwell Meighen Centre, a homeless shelter at Queen St. E and Sherbourne St., at around 11:28 a.m. for reports of a man wielding a machete.

Officers used a Taser to subdue the male suspect and arrest him, said the Toronto Police Service. The man was also taken to a hospital as a precaution, and is in good condition.

The victim received numerous stab wounds to his arms and torso, according to Toronto Paramedic Services. He was rushed to hospital, and his injuries are not life-threatening.

Meanwhile, the suspect will be charged with various offences for the incident, and is expected to appear in court on Saturday morning, said police.
