Police — who first responded to the incident on Saturday at 9:08 p.m. — say friends of the victim drove the man to hospital.

They describe the alleged suspect as a South Asian adult man with a short beard, wearing a black turban and dark-coloured clothing.

Police say the suspect fled in a grey-coloured sedan.

Police are asking anyone with any information to contact them.
