A large emergency response was reported early Saturday morning following a stabbing incident at Murphy’s Law Pub in Canandaigua, New York, that reportedly left three people injured and prompted a significant law enforcement and medical presence.
According to information shared by Ontario County Fire Calls, firefighters from the Canandaigua Fire Department (CFD), emergency personnel from Canandaigua Emergency Squad (CES), and Mercy EMS were dispatched to the scene shortly after 3 a.m. following reports of a stabbing involving multiple victims.
Initial reports indicated that three individuals were injured during the incident. Emergency responders arrived quickly to provide medical assistance, assess injuries, and secure the scene.
