TORONTO —
Hamilton Police are investigating its 10th homicide of the year after a 20-year-old man was fatally stabbed early Sunday morning.
Police were called to a home on Binbrook Road due to a disturbance.
When officers arrived, they found the victim “suffering from injuries from a stabbing attack,” police said.
He was transported to hospital, where he was pronounced dead.

A 16-year-old teen was also injured in the stabbing, police said. He was treated at hospital and was later released.
Residents and businesses in the area are being asked to check their surveillance cameras for vehicles travelling between the hours of 1:30 am, and 2:30 am.
