Mar 21, 2018 | 1:31 PM

Fort St. John RCMP say a man is facing aggravated assault charges after a fight that led to multiple stabbings.

Police say around 2 a.m. March 13, they were called out after reports that one man had been stabbed in the parking lot of a bar during a booze-fuelled argument. He was taken to hospital in serious condition.

The suspect, who also had a stab wound, was found and arrested a short time later.

RCMP found a second stabbing victim at the hospital after that. His injuries are described as non-life threatening.
