Toronto police are investigating the fatal stabbing of a man outside a business at a plaza in the city’s west end early Tuesday morning.

It happened in the area of St. Clair Avenue West and Jane Street at around 12:19 a.m.

Paramedics arrived to find a man suffering from stab wounds and despite life-saving efforts, the victim was pronounced dead at the scene.
