Vancouver police believe a man was slashed in the face on Saturday, Sept. 14.

Police are investigating after a man was left with a bloody facial wound in Vancouver's Granville Entertainment District Saturday night (Sept. 14).

It's unclear when exactly the incident happened, according to the Vancouver Police Department (VPD), as officers found the 30-year-old man around 11:30 p.m. at the intersection of Granville and Nelson, already wounded, after being alerted to the man by a passerby.

"[The] passersby told officers he was acting aggressively toward them, attempting to pick fights, and striking vehicles. As officers took the man into custody, they found him covered in blood with a large wound on his face," states the VPD in a press release.

The man was taken to a hospital to be treated for his wound.

The VPD isn't certain what occurred.

"Police believe the man was slashed in the face during an earlier altercation on Granville Street," according to the press release. "The suspect has not been identified."

An investigation is ongoing.
