At least two people were stabbed on a Manhattan-bound C train in Bed-Stuy this afternoon.

Police say two men were stabbed on the C train near Ralph Avenue in Brooklyn around 3:15 p.m. Tuesday. The FDNY say both were taken to Brookdale Hospital in stable condition. Cops adds that neither of these injuries appears to be fatal.

ABC reports that up to four people may have been stabbed, though both the NYPD and FDNY confirmed only two injuries. ABC adds that police are looking for a 30-year-old man wearing all denim, who fled the scene after the stabbing.

It's unclear what sparked the stabbings. The investigation is ongoing, and we'll update as more information becomes available.

Update: ABC is now reporting that the 30-year-old suspect has been arrested. NBC adds that police believe the weapon was a razor blade recovered at the scene.
