Teen stabbed in carjacking

Burnaby RCMP are looking for suspects in a violent carjacking that sent a 19-year-old man to hospital with serious stab wounds early Monday.

Emergency responders were called to the 9000 block of Cardston Court just after midnight for reports a man had been stabbed during an altercation with another group of men from a dark SUV.

The assailants then took off with the car the victim had been in, a white 2004 Mazda 3.

Another man with the victim was unhurt, police say.

Officers have since located the car, but none of the carjackers has been found.

“It is too early to confirm a motive for this carjacking and stabbing; however, it is believed to be targeted and the victim is known to police,” RCMP said in a press release.

Anyone with information is asked to contact Burnaby RCMP at 604-646-9999 or CrimeStoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS or www.solvecrime.ca.
