Toronto police have unveiled a photo of a suspect in the stabbing of a TTC employee. The incident occurred around 8 a.m. on Friday near Yonge and Bloor streets. The victim, a TTC worker, was walking alone when he was suddenly attacked from behind, resulting in serious but non-life threatening injuries. The man was hospitalized for his treatment.

TTC CEO Mandeep Lali later confirmed that the victim was an electrical worker who had just taken a break when the attack took place. He added that the victim had been discharged from the hospital and was currently recovering at home.

The police have described the suspect as being between five-feet-eight and five-feet-ten inches tall, with a medium build and a full beard. Police believe the suspect was last seen wearing a grey t-shirt, a blue vest, light grey pants with side pockets, brown leather shoes featuring mustard-colored laces, and a backwards black baseball cap with white lettering.
