Waterloo Regional Police continue to investigate a reported assault during which a knife was drawn in Waterloo.
It happened on Sunday morning around 2:15 a.m. when regional police responded to an incident in the area of King Street North and Princess Street West.
Two male victims were reportedly approached by an unknown man and a female suspect.
Police say a physical altercation followed, during which one of the suspects allegedly attempted to assault the victims with a knife.
Following the altercation, police say both suspects fled the scene on foot. It’s unclear what sparked the scuffle, though police say no physical injuries were reported.
It happened around the same time that police responded to a stabbing in the area of King Street North and Bridgeport Road East. That incident sent two men in their 20s to hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.
A spokesperson with the police service said the two incidents are not related.
The investigation into this assault is still ongoing – anyone with information is asked to contact the service’s Neighbourhood Policing North Division at 519-570-9777, extension 6399.
