Halifax Regional Police are investigating after a 16-year-old boy was stabbed early Sunday morning.
Police say officers were called to the 6700 block of Chisholm Avenue shortly after midnight, where the victim reported he was in a house with friends when a rock was thrown through a window.
After the group went outside, they were confronted by another group of young people dressed in black and wearing masks.
The second group sprayed a sensory irritant at the first group, and the victim was stabbed during the altercation.
Police say the victim was taken to hospital with non-life threatening injuries and no arrests have been made.
The investigation is ongoing.
