In a news release Monday, the Saskatoon Police Service said the serious assault unit was investigating the stabbing, which happened on the 200 block of 3rd Avenue South around 1:20 p.m.

Officers found an injured 33-year-old woman at the scene, and she was taken to hospital with injuries police described as non-life-threatening.
