Man in hospital following stabbing as fight on bus spills into the street

A 32-year-old Vancouver man is in the hospital after being stabbed by a youth on Commercial Drive Tuesday night.

The victim and the 15-year-old started fighting on a B.C. Transit bus around 9 p.m., and continued fighting after they left the bus near Venables Street.

Police say the youth allegedly stabbed the man before a bystander was able to intervene and take hold of the attacker.

Other witnesses in the area called the police and provided first aid to the victim until paramedics arrived.

The victim remains in hospital with serious, but non-life-threatening injuries.

The youth remains in police custody.
