A “number of people” were stabbed in downtown Vancouver Wednesday before the suspect was shot by police, authorities say.

The Vancouver Police Department put out a short statement on social media around noon, saying officers were on scene after a “violent incident” near Robson and Hamilton streets.

Video and photos posted to social media show a heavy presence of first responders and one person on a stretcher receiving CPR.

This is a developing story. More to come.
