A teenage boy suffered a stab wound during a mugging in Ajax last night.

Durham Regional Police were called to Torr Ln. and Trott Ln. in northern Ajax around 10:20 p.m. on March 22. The call reported an armed person in the area.

When officers arrived, they found a 15-year-old boy suffering a single stab wound. The boy reported his cell phone had been stolen.
