A teenage boy was rushed to hospital via emergency run following a stabbing in Riverdale this morning.
The incident occurred on the street in the area of Pape Avenue and Strathcona Avenue, south of Danforth Avenue, at around 11:27 a.m.

The stabbing occurred near Earl Grey Senior Public School, which was briefly placed under a hold and secure order.
"This matter was unrelated to the school; however, police advised that the school be placed in a hold and secure as a precaution. All students and staff were safe and accounted for," the principal of the school said in an email sent to parents.
"Our priority is the safety of our students and staff."
