Police are seeking information about a stabbing that occurred in the Lake of the Woods area last Friday at around 4:20 p.m, according to an email from Hope RCMP detachment commander Karol Rehdner.

Rehdner said that their investigation has determined that the matter started with two dogs fighting.

“One of the dog owners interceded and in an effort to stop the dog fight utilized a knife to stab one of the dogs,” said Rehdner. “The second dog owner also interceded and subsequently suffered a non-life threatening injury to his arm.”

He added that police arrested a man at the scene and the investigation is ongoing. Anyone with information is asked to contact Hope RCMP at 604-869-7750 or CrimeStoppers.
