APD seeks the public’s help in investigation of weekend stabbing

Posted on — Community Bulletin

Asheville Police are investigating the stabbing of two women at an apartment complex on Sunday.

APD officers responded around 2:37 a.m. on June 2 to Mission Hospital to investigate a stabbing in which two women suffered multiple stab wounds, arriving to seek medical treatment. One of the victims was in critical but stable condition, while the other suffered non-life-threatening injuries.

Through their investigation, officers determined that the stabbing occurred as a result of an argument between the victims on Atkinson Street. Following the assault, one of the victims was able to drive to Mission Hospital, ensuring both received medical attention.

A person of interest has been identified, but Detectives would like the public’s help with any information about the stabbing. Please contact APD at (828) 252-1110. You can also send an anonymous tip using the TIP2APD smartphone application (search “Asheville PD” in your app store) or by texting TIP2APD to 847411.

    Atkinson St. is deflective way of saying Hillcrest Apartments. They were probably fighting over who got to buy the last item out of the trunk of a gang member’s car. Wigs, meth, or the newest hot/stolen iPhone.
