Windsor police are investigating what appears to be a random machete attack overnight.
Officers arrived on Wyandotte Street East and Langlois Avenue around 3 a.m. to find three people with arm injuries. It looked like someone had slashed them with a weapon.
The trio was sitting on a bench when a white van drove up and stopped nearby. The victims told police that a man got out and attacked them with a machete.
The van, which had two other people inside, then took off.
All three victims, two female and one male, were taken to hospital with non-life-threatening injuries. Police did not say if the victims and suspect were known to each other.
The investigation is ongoing.
Anyone who may have witnessed the incident, or has security camera footage to share, should call Windsor police's Major Crimes Unit at (519) 255-6700, ext. 4830. Anonymous tips may be submitted to Crime Stoppers at (519) 258-TIPS (8477) to be eligible for a cash reward.
