North Cowichan/Duncan RCMP are investigating a pair of reported stabbings on Dec. 28 and 29 — believed to be unrelated — with the first one sending an 18-year-old male to hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.
Police were called to a business on the Trans-Canada Highway about 6 p.m. and found the victim being tended to by a witness.
The suspect, who possibly goes by the name “Keenan,” is described as white and five-foot-seven with brown/blond hair, and wearing a black tuque and black puffy jacket.
The Dec. 29 incident was reported about 7:20 p.m. at the Tim Hortons on Trunk Road in Duncan.
Witnesses said they saw several people start an altercation with a man outside the restaurant, with one of them possibly having a knife.
Everyone involved had left by the time police arrived and no stabbing victim was found.
Police continue to investigate both incidents and are asking any more witnesses to come forward.
Contact North Cowichan/Duncan RCMP at 250-748-5522 with information.
