At approximately 9:02 a.m., authorities received a report of a fight on Koningstraat with an injured individual at the location. Police units and emergency medical services were immediately dispatched to the scene. Upon arrival, officers discovered that the altercation had already ended, but one individual remained injured while the suspected attacker had fled the area.
According to preliminary information gathered by police, the confrontation escalated when one of the individuals involved allegedly used an “X-Acto knife” during the fight. The victim sustained two deep cuts to the hand and was bleeding heavily at the time officers arrived.
