An apparent early morning stabbing in northeast Calgary Friday is believed to be connected to an incident in the southeast where blood was found, police say.

Officers say they arrived just after 6 a.m. in the Falconridge area at the 0-100 block of Falsby Place on reports of a man suffering from “what appeared to be stab wounds.”
