A 24-year-old man is in custody after a 22-year-old man was stabbed in an apartment in Montreal's Verdun borough Thursday night.

The incident occurred at around 12:10 a.m. Friday, when police were called to the residence on rue Evelyn near rue Caisse. SPVM spokesperson Véronique Dubuc said officers arrived to find the 22-year-old with an upper-body injury. He was brought to the hospital but medical teams, Dubuc continued, have confirmed there's no danger to his life.

Officers also arrested a 24-year-old at the scene. Police allege that the stabbing occurred following a conflict between two individuals.

The 24-year-old was brought to a detention centre where he met with investigators. Dubuc confirmed he's set to appear in court Friday.
