On arrival officers patrolled the Railway Trail in search of the suspects, after receiving reports of a male stabbing victim; however, neither the suspects nor the victim were located. Police then monitored the main entrance and patrolled the field. Although there was still a large crowd present, no further disturbances or individuals with weapons were observed. Officers also made checks at KEMH for the victim, but these proved negative.
