Student Stabbed At Don Mills Collegiate

Students arriving at Don Mills Collegiate Tuesday morning were met with a terrifying surprise.

Their school was in lockdown following a stabbing that sent one of their classmates to hospital and put another one in police custody.

Officers were called to the school around 10:38am, following reports of a knife attack. When they arrived, they located the victim in the front office.

The 15-year-old boy was rushed to hospital, where he remains in serious condition with wounds to his abdomen and chest.

"I have no idea what may have caused it because the person that was stabbed seems like a pretty good kid," reports one student.

But police they know what may have sparked the attack: an argument over a pair of gloves. The violence escalated, and a knife was pulled.

Officers immediately put the institute into lockdown as they scoured the grounds for the assailant and a weapon.

A 17-year-old was found behind the school and taken into custody. Reportedly, he's well-known to police. A knife was also found, but it's not known if it belongs to the suspect or if it's connected to the crime.
