A woman was seriously injured in a suspected stabbing in Abbotsford Tuesday afternoon, according to authorities.

The Abbotsford Police Department has released few details, but a statement says patrol offciers responded to a “suspicious circumstance” on the 3000 block Townline Road, near Nadeau Park, just before 2 p.m.

“Officers at the scene located a 46-year-old female suffering from what appeared to be stab wounds. The female victim was transported to the hospital with serious but non-life-threatening injuries,” a media release from police says.
