Durham police are looking for a 28-year-old man in connection with a stabbing and collision in Oshawa earlier this week.

According to police, the incident began in a parking lot near Grandview Street and Ridge Valley Drive on Tuesday afternoon.

A grey Mazda sedan collided with an SUV, police said. The driver of the Mazda then got into a physical altercation with the SUV driver and allegedly stabbed him with a knife.

Police said the Mazda driver fled the area, but the other driver followed him. At some point, the suspect forced the victim off the roadway into a fire hydrant.

When officers arrived, they found the SUV driver with a stab wound. The victim was taken to a trauma centre in Toronto with serious but non-life-threatening injuries. In an update on Thursday, police said the victim is now in stable condition.

The suspect has been identified as Sam Nyombi of Oshawa. He is wanted for assault causing bodily harm and assault with a weapon.

Police are asking anyone with information to contact investigators at 1-888-579-1520 ext. 1615 or Crime Stoppers anonymously.
