A man sustained minor injuries after a stabbing Thursday evening in Maple Ridge.

A man was stabbed by another man at around 6:40 p.m. close to Royal Crescent and Lougheed Highway, said Ridge Meadows RCMP Sgt. Daniel Rettenbacher.

It’s still an ongoing file, he added.

No was was taken into custody.

“We’re not worried about the public [safety],” he said.

The two people involved in the incident knew each other.
