Windsor police say a 21-year-old Chatham man has been arrested in connection to stabbing Monday that stemmed from a downtown fight.  

Police responded to a call about a physical altercation at around 1:30 a.m. near the intersection of Chatham Street West and Pelissier Street. 

Officers found a 31-year-old victim with a stab wound to his back. He was treated in hospital for non-life-threatening injuries.
