SUDBURY -- A 40-year-old woman has been charged with attempted murder in connection with an early morning incident Wednesday in Greater Sudbury that left a man with serious stab wounds.

Police received the call just before 6:30 a.m. about an attack in a residential building on Pine Street.

"Information provided was that a man had been stabbed and that the individual responsible was still in the building," Greater Sudbury Police said in a news release.

"Officers arrived on scene and found a man who had suffered a serious stab wound. The 30-year-old man was immediately transported to hospital by paramedic services and he remains in hospital in stable condition."

Police determined the person responsible for the attack was inside one of the units in the building. The woman was arrested and charged.

"This is believed to be an isolated incident as the two individuals are known to each other," police said. "The woman will attend bail court today to answer to the charge."

Officers remain at the scene of the incident and will be canvassing the area for information and video surveillance footage. The investigation into this matter is ongoing.
