West Kelowna RCMP are investigating after several people were stabbed early Sunday morning.
On March 28, just before 2 am, West Kelowna RCMP and Kelowna RCMP were called to the Postill Lake Road area for a report of multiple victims of a stabbing at an outdoor gathering.
Officers flooded the area and located five victims suffering from stab wounds.
Two youths and three men were transported to hospital for treatment.
The severity of their injuries is not being disclosed at this time.
A man has been arrested and is currently in police custody. It is not believed there is any ongoing risk to the public.
Police are in the evidence-gathering phase of this investigation and are requesting that anyone with information call the West Kelowna RCMP at 250-768-2880.

Hmmm….multiple persons stabbed by a lone male in North Vancouver yesterday, multiple people stabbed by a lone male in Kelowna today……..seems a little too coincidental.

Names, nationalities, when they moved in Canada, criminal history…
All need to be immediately available for our own safety.
No more political correctness games.
And yes, I call to liberals and Bill Blair to make all knifes in Canada immediately prohibited weapons…
Bob says
Why? Knives are tools used by chefs, outdoors people, anglers, hunters, etc for food/game/fish prep, wilderness/camping use etc. Knives are inanimate objects. If someone used a tree branch to stab someone would you ban tree branches? Doesn’t make sense.
Yes, the incident is highly disturbing and sad, but it’s the actions of the person that killed / injured people that need to be addressed.
BTW….the person the RCMP arrested for this incident used a kitchen knife.
