Paramedics says they were called to the scene in the Ashley area yesterday. 


Emer-G-Med's Kyle Van Reenen says they found the boy with a stab wound to his abdomen and in a critical condition. 


He says Advanced Life Support intervention was needed to stabilize him.


He was then placed onto a mechanical ventilator to assist him in breathing, and transported rapidly by ambulance to a nearby hospital where he's succumbed to his injuries.
