Hopkinsville police are investigating after a man was stabbed several times during a dispute Saturday night on South Main Street.
Officers were called to the 300 block of South Main outside near the Manhattan Motel a few minutes before 9 p.m. and determined two men had been in a verbal dispute that became physical, according to Sgt. Rico Rodriguez.
That’s when 51-year old John Chambers of Hopkinsville allegedly produced a knife and stabbed the victim, Maurice Catlett, numerous times, causing injuries to his left arm that sent him to Jennie Stuart Medical Center.
Chambers was soon located in an apartment and arrested for first-degree assault.
