RCMP have arrested three men in connection with a stabbing Wednesday at Harrison Hot Springs.

RCMP received reports of a man who had been stabbed just after 6 p.m. at a dock along the west side of the beach on Esplanade Avenue. Officers were then able to locate a 24-year-old man suffering from stab wounds.

The man was transported by air ambulance to the hospital where he was treated for potentially life threatening injuries. 

Suspects had fled the area but RCMP were then able to locate a suspect vehicle where three male suspects were then arrested for attempted murder. The men remain in custody as the investigation continues.

"The dock and beach area were busy at the time of this incident," says Sgt. Mike Sargent, detachment commander of the Agassiz RCMP.

"Agassiz RCMP Serious Crime Investigators are looking to speak with anyone who witnessed this event and are actively seeking any CCTV or cell phone video footage which may capture this crime."
