Two unrelated stabbings reported within 10 minutes of each other kept Whitehorse RCMP busy on Saturday night.

In one case, a 32-year-old woman has been arrested and is facing five charges of aggravated assault.

In the other incident, police are still looking for two male suspects and the weapon, believed to be a knife.

Whitehorse RCMP received a call at 6:19 p.m. on Saturday from a man who’d been “severely beaten and stabbed” at The Barracks, an apartment building at 465 Range Road, said police this morning in a news release.

The 29-year-old victim said he’d been attacked by two men.

He was transported to Whitehorse General Hospital with non-life-threatening injuries, and has since been released, said Cpl. Natasha Dunmall this morning.

Police are still looking for the two suspects.

They also haven’t yet located the weapon, and believe the men took it with them when they fled. The parties are known to each other in this case, Dunmall said.

At 6:29 p.m., a second call came in, from a home on Prospector Road in the Kopper King mobile home subdivision.

Five victims were found inside, with stab and slash wounds to their limbs and core areas, Dunmall said.

Three were transported to the hospital with serious but non-life-threatening injuries, and two were treated on scene by EMS.

The three victims have since been released from hospital.

Police arrested Roxanne McGinty, who is now facing charges of aggravated assault and failing to comply with a court order.

She was charged with aggravated assault in October 2014, and had been released on a recognizance.

Dunmall said there were seven to 10 people gathered at the home when a verbal argument began.

One of them allegedly headed out to her car, retrieved a hunting knife and went back inside.

“It appears that the attack was going towards one individual,” Dunmall said. “Other people attempted to stop it and were injured in the process.”

Alcohol is believed to be a contributing factor.

McGinty is scheduled to appear in court on Feb. 18.

Dunmall said the two incidents are not connected, nor are they random. In both cases, the people involved knew each other.

“It’s just a complete coincidence they happened within 10 minutes of each other,” she said.

For police, “it made for a busy Saturday night heading into Sunday morning.”

Anyone with information about these incidents is asked to contact the Whitehorse RCMP at 667-5555.
