Calgary police are investigating after a man came into the Drop-In Centre Monday morning after being injured during an assault.

Investigators say it happened just before noon at the facility on Dermot Baldwin Way SE.

Officers were called to the area when a man arrived at the Drop-In looking for help after apparently being hurt with a weapon.

Police have not said what the weapon was.

The man was taken to hospital in non-life threatening condition.

One person has also been arrested by police. However, investigators say it is unclear what their involvement in the incident is.
