The Service de police de la Ville de Montréal (SPVM) has been notified of a double stabbing in a bar on rue Saint-Paul Ouest, near rue Saint-Pierre.

On the spot, the police located two men, aged 42 and 38, injured respectively in the lower and upper bodies.

Both victims were taken to a hospital in a conscious state with non-life threatening injuries.

Two 51-year-old suspects were arrested and were to be met by investigators, said Caroline Chèvrefils, spokesperson for the SPVM.

At the origin of this armed attack, a conflict which would have degenerated between the victims and the suspects, it was explained.

Investigators and the forensic identification technician were dispatched to the scene to analyze the scene protected by a security perimeter.

Witnesses were also met by the police, added the Montreal police spokesperson.
