Toronto police are looking for a man who allegedly stabbed another man in the chest in the city’s downtown neighbourhood of Grange Park on Friday evening.
Officers responded to a stabbing around 7:30 p.m. in the area of Beverley Street and Dundas Street West, east of Spadina Avenue.
Police said two men were involved in a verbal altercation in an apartment building.
