“Police were patrolling in the area when they observed an altercation involving two females,” a news release stated.
Officers stopped driving and approached the women when one ran away. The second female remained and officers provided first aid to her, “as it appeared as though she had been stabbed.”
The injured woman was taken to hospital for treatment of what police said appeared to be non-life-threatening injuries.
“Despite searching the area, the female suspect that fled the scene has not yet been located,” police shared, adding that the investigation is still ongoing.
Anyone who saw the incident or has information that could help investigators is asked to call the Regina Police Service or submit an anonymous tip through Crime Stoppers.
