Two men were arrested Friday after an early morning stabbing of two other men in Winnipeg's West End that left a crime scene spanning several blocks.

Police were initially called around 2:30 a.m. to a home on Maryland Street, north of St. Matthews Avenue, but the investigation led to several other nearby scenes.

Officers tracked down two men in an apartment suite on Agnes Street and took them into custody. Charges are pending, police said.

The man who was in critical condition has since been upgraded to stable. The second victim, whose injuries weren't as serious, is also listed as stable.

For several hours on Friday, yellow police tape stretched across a Maryland sidewalk, spanning about three homes and blocking off an area across the street.

Tape was also up in an alley between McGee Street and Agnes Street and in front of the Agnes home where the two suspects were located.

Police are still interviewing witnesses and asking anyone with information about the incident to call investigators at 204-986-6668 or Crime Stoppers at 204-786-TIPS (8477).
