The incident occurred during a party at a reception hall on rue Bélanger, near 6th Avenue, in the Rosemont-La Petite-Patrie borough.
A conflict allegedly started inside at around 3:25 a.m. on Sunday and escalated outside.
“At the scene, police officers located two injured people on the pavement. They were taken to hospital, but there is no fear for their lives," said Constable Véronique Dubuc, spokesperson for the Service de police de la Ville de Montréal (SPVM).
Five other injured people were reported about 30 minutes later.
“Another 911 call was made to inform the police that five other people connected with the event had taken themselves to hospital with non-life-threatening injuries,” explained another SPVM spokeswoman, Caroline Chèvrefils.
The victims are men and women aged between 29 and 47.
