A teenager has been stabbed on the grounds of a school in Montreal North, according to Montreal police.
Police say the victim, who they believe is 17 years old, is in critical condition after suffering stab wounds to the upper body.
The young man was stabbed with a long blade, possible a machete, police said, at 4:40 p.m. Monday outside Calixa-Lavallee High School on Pelletier Avenue.
The suspect is likely also a minor, said SPVM spokesperson Sabrina Gauthier, but no arrests have been made. She said police are looking for more than one suspect related to the incident.
Police said the stabbing happened during a fight with several young people.
The victim was taken to hospital and is not cooperating with police, said Gauthier.
