AJAX, Ont. — Police say a 28-year-old man is dead after he was stabbed early this morning outside a bar east of Toronto.
Durham Regional Police say two men were in an altercation outside the King’s Castle Bar and Grill in Ajax, around 2 a.m. when one man pulled out a knife and stabbed the other.
The stabbing victim was taken to a Toronto hospital where he died from his injuries.
