No arrest has been made since a woman was stabbed in the neck in the West End last Thursday night (March 28).
The victim told police that the suspect stabbed her with a pocket knife in a parking lot of an apartment complex in the 400 block of Mayflower Court at around 7:30 p.m. She suffered a non-life threatening injury and was treated at Inova Fairfax Hospital.
After the stabbing, the victim ran to a nearby hotel in the 200 block of N. Breckinridge Place and the employee at the front desk called 911, according to dispatch reports.
The victim told police that she’d met the suspect only days before, and that he frequented the area.
APD released no suspect information.
“The case is still being investigated,” APD Communications Manager Tracy Walker told ALXnow. “No arrests have been made at this time. The relationship between the suspect and the victim is unclear at this point in the investigation.”
