A man in his 20s and a woman in her 40s were hospitalized with serious non-life-threatening injuries after two separate stabbings in Moss Park early Wednesday morning.

The first stabbing occurred shortly after 1 a.m. at Sherbourne Street and Shuter Street, where police responded to reports of an altercation in a park. The man was transported to hospital with a stab wound. Police said three male suspects remain outstanding and have not released suspect descriptions.

Approximately three hours later, at 4:08 a.m., a second stabbing was reported outside a residential building at Queen Street East and Sherbourne Street. The woman sustained a stab wound and was taken to hospital. No suspect description has been provided in this incident either.

Police have not stated whether the two incidents are connected.

Anyone with information about either incident is asked to contact Toronto Police. HighOnCity reported in July that a man was stabbed near Sherbourne and Dundas streets with serious non-life-threatening injuries, and a suspect was arrested in that case.
