WANTED FOR STABBING AT MILLSITE PARK
On January 19, 2021 at about 8:13 PM, officers were called to Millsite Park for a call of a male who had been stabbed. The 40-year-old male was transported by ambulance to Mercy Medical Center, where he was treated for non-life threatening injuries.
It was discovered during the investigation that two subjects had approached the male and a confrontation ensued. At some point one of the two subjects stabbed the man twice. The two then fled the scene on foot.
