Two people are recovering from stab wounds after two separate incidents on 17 Ave. S.W. Thursday morning.

Shortly after midnight, a woman with a wound to her neck went into a Mac's convenience store in the 1200 block, police say.

She was taken to hospital in serious but non-life threatening condition.

As police were trying to find the scene of that crime, they discovered a man with serious stab wounds two blocks away in the 1000 block.

Police say the man told them four or five males attacked him after he refused to give them money.
