Stabbing in Toronto's western district leaves a man critically wounded, as per the police report
A fellow in his golden years finds himself gravely wounded following a vicious knife attack in Toronto's west side, as per authorities.
Toronto PD confirmed they received a distress call at around 7:50 PM on a weekday evening, regarding a man who had sustained a stab wound in the vicinity of Dupont Street and Campbell Avenue, east of Symington Avenue.
Medics swiftly transported the injured individual to the hospital, where he was treated for severe, albeit not fatal, injuries.
The police confirmed that the suspect and the victim were no strangers to each other, and that the suspect has been taken into custody. They added that the investigation remains active.
Remarkably, the data available does not explicitly state the age of the individual involved in the stabbing incident in Toronto on that particular day. However, it's worth noting that on May 1, 2025, there was indeed a reported stabbing incident in the same vicinity, though the specific age of the victim isn't disclosed in that case [1].
In case you're referring to a different incident involving a man in his 50s, it's possible there's been a mix-up with a separate homicide investigation taking place in Burlington, where a man of the same age was implicated, but that scenario unfolded outside Toronto [5]. For the most recent and accurate updates on the Toronto incident, we recommend seeking direct updates from the Toronto Police Department.
- The news of a 50-year-old man being seriously injured in a stabbing in general-news sections, under crime-and-justice, may have been overlooked due to a mix-up with a homicide investigation in Burlington involving another man in his 50s.
- It is unclear whether the man involved in the recent stabbing in Toronto's west side, near Dupont Street and Campbell Avenue, is the same individual who was injured in a similar incident reported on May 1, 2025.
- Adding to the confusion, the exact age of the individual involved in the recent stabbing in Toronto remains undisclosed, although it was not stated in the report of the 2025 incident either.
- It can be inferred that the police have added the incident involving the stabbing in Toronto to their ongoing investigation, considering the recent spate of crime-and-justice incidents that have occurred in the city.
