Toronto police have released videos of a suspect who allegedly stabbed a stranger he bumped into in the city’s Mount Dennis neighbourhood earlier this week.

Officers received a call for an assault in the area of Weston Road and Eglinton Avenue West shortly after 9:30 a.m. on Monday.

After bumping into the victim, the suspect allegedly brandished a knife and stabbed them.

On Wednesday, police posted three videos of the suspect, including one showing him exiting an apartment building. In the two other videos, the suspect is seen walking into a back alley lane.

He is described as being in his 20s, five-foot-six, with a slim build and slim face.

Police ask anyone with information about the suspect to contact them at 416-808-1200 or Crime Stoppers anonymously at 416-222-TIPS (8477) or www.222tips.com.
