June 4, 2015

To the Humber community,

As you may have seen or heard through media coverage or while on campus, a Humber student was stabbed in a parking lot at North Campus on Wednesday, June 3, at approximately 5:30 p.m..

Toronto Police, EMS and Humber’s Department of Public Safety responded to the incident quickly. EMS took the student to a trauma centre for treatment. The student underwent surgery, and to our knowledge, is expected to make a full recovery. Toronto Police is continuing to investigate the incident and Public Safety is assisting with the investigation.

The incident appears to be an isolated occurrence between individuals known to each other. At no time was the college at risk or the student or suspect a threat to the college. The suspect left college property immediately after the incident occurred.
