SEDGWICK COUNTY —Law enforcement authorities are investigating a stabbing that injured a 57-year-old man.
Just before 3a.m. Saturday, police were dispatched to the 1200 block of North Broadway in downtown Wichita for a stabbing call, according to Office Juan Rebolledo.
Upon the officer’s arrival, they located the victim with a laceration to his left wrist and face. The victim was transported to an area hospital with serious but non-life-threatening injuries.
The victim was stabbed with a larger type knife or machete. After the incident, the victim went back to his residence and did not report the incident about two hours later.
Due to the lack of cooperation from the victim, investigators had not been able to determine the circumstances of what led up to the stabbing.
This was not a random incident, according to Rebolledo. Name of the victim has not been released.
