A woman is facing charges after allegedly stabbing her domestic partner early Tuesday morning in downtown Langley City.

At about 4:13 a.m., Langley RCMP received more than one 911 call from neighbours about a loud fight taking place in the 5400 block of 207th Street.

Officers arrived to find one man with a serious stab wound to his upper torso or shoulder area, said Cpl. Holly Marks.

There had apparently been an argument that allegedly ended with the stabbing, Marks said.

The man, 50, was taken to hospital and in Wednesday remained in critical condition.

The 32-year-old woman was first taken to Vancouver Provincial Court on outstanding warrants. She has been kept in custody and charges have been recommended against her for the attack, Marks said.
