A woman is dead and another is injured after a stabbing at a subway station in west Toronto.
Toronto police say officers responded to calls about a person assaulting and stabbing people on the eastbound subway platform at High Park station just after 2 p.m. on Thursday.
They say two women were found with stab wounds and were taken to hospital.
Const. Shannon Whitehead says one of the two victims has died and the other has serious injuries but is expected to survive.
She says she cannot confirm the ages of the victims.
Whitehead says one man has been arrested.
The Toronto Transit Commission says subway service has been halted between Keele and Jane stations, with shuttle buses running instead, but buses are not stopping near High Park station.
Police say they are investigating.
