Two teens charged after serious stabbing near downtown

One man was seriously hurt in a stabbing in London's SoHo neighbourhood that has led to charges against two teenaged women.

London police received a 911 call about the incident in the area of Horton and Wellington streets around 2 a.m. on Monday.

When officers arrived they found a 21-year-old man suffering from a stab wound. He was taken to hospital with serious injuries.

Two women were arrested near the scene and a knife was seized.

A 19-year-old woman and a 17-year-old woman are charged with aggravated assault. The name of the 17-year-old cannot be released because of her age. The name of the 19-year-old isn't being released because it could identify the younger woman, police said.

Both women are scheduled to appear in court in relation to the charges on Monday.
