Saskatoon Police are investigating an incident where a man was stabbed and a firearm was discharged over the weekend.
On June 21, 2026 at approximately 10:20 p.m., police were called to the 400 block of Marlette Crescent for a weapons call where it was reported that a firearm had been discharged. Shortly after, police were called to the 3800 block of Kochar Avenue for an injured person call where it was reported that a male had been stabbed and a firearm was observed. It was believed the calls were related.
Officers arrived in the 3800 block of Kochar Avenue and located two people inside a vehicle, a 35-year-old woman and 28-year-old man. The man was transported to hospital with what were believed to be non-life-threatening injuries consistent with a stabbing.
Through their investigation, officers learned the victims met up with two people in the 400 block of Marlette Crescent to sell a phone. A male and female suspect entered the vehicle and a short time later, a third male approached the drivers side window with a firearm. When the driver began to pull forward, the male in the back seat stabbed the man in the front seat. The male and female suspect then got out of the vehicle before the third male approached with a firearm and reportedly fired it before all three suspects fled the scene in a vehicle.
Members of the Saskatoon Police Serious Assault Unit are investigating in relation to this incident and anyone with information that may assist is asked to contact police at 306-975-8300 or submit and anonymous tip to Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.
