HAMILTON (Canada) May 3 (Bernama-Anadolu) --- At least three people were injured after a stabbing incident at a mosque in Hamilton, Canada, police said on Friday.
Anadolu Ajansi (AA) reported that Hamilton Police Service, in a statement, said it is investigating the stabbing at the downtown mosque.
Authorities initially reported that two individuals had been shifted to the hospital.
One victim was moved to the hospital with non-life-threatening injuries, while another person was treated at the scene for minor injuries.
"A third victim showed up at the hospital with non-life-threatening injuries," police said in a separate statement.
Authorities confirmed that two suspects fled the area in an unknown direction.
