A man was seriously injured in an attack inside the Burger King near Confusion Corner Tuesday morning.

Police said Wednesday morning that officers were called to the “serious assault” at the fast food restaurant at about 10 a.m. Tuesday. The victim, a man, was taken to hospital in critical condition.

Few other details were immediately available Wednesday. Police were not able to confirm whether anyone had been arrested.

A sign taped to the entrance of the restaurant at 244 Osborne St. said the dining room was closed and open for drive-thru only on Tuesday.

Around 6:30 p.m. a cleaner was seen mopping up pools of blood spattered on the floor of the eating area and blood-soaked napkins were near the counter.

There were patches of dried blood outside the south entrance of the restaurant.

Employees working in the drive-thru of the Burger King declined to comment.

Earlier on Tuesday, a man was assaulted at the corner of Main Street and Sutherland Avenue at about 9:15 a.m. Police said Wednesday the victim was hospitalized in unstable condition, but he has since been upgraded to stable.
