VANCOUVER — Two people have been treated in hospital for life-threatening injuries in what Vancouver police say started with one man attacking another with a sword.
A statement from police says officers responded on Monday to reports that a man with a sword was assaulting another man outside a Vancouver apartment building.
Police say the 29-year-old suspect jumped in front of a car as officers arrived, smashed the vehicle’s window and continued to run through traffic.
He was eventually taken into custody after officers fired rounds from a beanbag gun and a Taser.
