Triple stabbing outside Caprice Nightclub in downtown Vancouver

Vancouver Police are investigating another major incident at Caprice Nightclub on Granville Street in downtown Vancouver after three men were stabbed outside the entertainment venue overnight.

The incident occurred at approximately 3 am when two groups of men were involved in a verbal altercation outside the nightclub. A fight broke out after the groups were directed outside, and three men were subsequently stabbed.

All three men were transported to hospital with serious injuries, but they are in stable condition.

A short distance away, officers responding to the scene arrested two men, who remain in police custody. Police have yet to lay charges as the investigation is still in its early stages.
