London police are looking for three suspects after a home invasion in which a man was stabbed.
Police got a call early Tuesday morning about a home invasion at a residence on Jalna Boulevard. When they arrived, they found a man who had been stabbed multiple times. He was taken to hospital, where he was treated and later released.
"Early information obtained suggests that the victim was asleep inside the residence when he awoke to sounds of what he believed was someone trying to enter the home," police said in a news release issued Tuesday afternoon. "The victim found three people outside the house, and when he approached them, he was assaulted. The suspects were able to enter the home, and one of the suspects stabbed the victim multiple times prior to fleeing from the yard in an unknown direction."
Investigators have located a knife they believe was used in the stabbing.
Police are looking for two men and a woman. The first man is described as Caucasian, about 6'2", who was wearing a black hooded sweatshirt. His face was partially covered by a bandana at the time of the incident.
The second male suspect is also Caucasian. He is believed to be about 5'8" and was also wearing a bandana over his face and a black hooded sweatshirt.
The female suspect is Caucasian and was wearing a bandana over her face and a black hooded sweatshirt.
