Toronto police are searching for a suspect after a man was attacked at Sherbourne Station Saturday night.

The incident occurred shortly before 9 p.m.

Police previously said officers were responding to a reported stabbing however investigators later said that the victim's injuries were a result of blunt force trauma.

It is unclear if the attack took place on a subway car or on the eastbound platform of the station.

A suspect was seen fleeing the station in an unknown direction.

The suspect has been described as a black male who is about five-foot-ten with a medium build and appears to be in his 40s. Police say the man had long dreads, was unshaven with a patchy beard and was wearing a brown jacket.

Subway service was suspended on Line 2 but full service has since resumed.
