Boy, 16, still in critical condition after school stabbing; Three teens arrested

Police say three young people have been arrested after a 16-year-old boy was stabbed near a Pointe-Claire high school and sent to hospital in critical condition. A second teen, age 15, also ended up hospital with stab wounds.

A second boy was also sent to hospital with stab wounds but his life is not in danger.

Police say a dispute between two groups of people at about 2:40 pm led to the first boy’s stabbing on Broadview Ave. near John Fisher Avenue in Pointe-Claire. 

One of the boys arrested, age 16, will appear in court on Wednesday and the other two are expected to appear in the future.

Prior to the incident, the suspects were all known to each other but not to police.
