Mounties in Richmond are dealing with another stabbing and another case of a victim and witnesses not talking.

This time, the incident, a stabbing, took place in Ceilis bar on Westminster Highway and Alderbridge Way on July 13.

According to the RCMP, the incident kicked off when an argument started between two groups of males, who are known to police.

It then escalated into the stabbing of one member of the two groups. The man, in his mid-20s, was taken to hospital with non-life threatening injuries and was later released.

The victim is, at the moment, being uncooperative and weve been unable to ascertain who was involved, said Sgt. Cam Kowalski, of Richmond RCMP.

Were trying to get to the bottom of what happened and hopefully make an arrest.

Earlier this month, local Mounties faced a similar, silent response after a man suffered two stab wounds to his chest in the Cambie/Shell Road area.
