Man stabbed

NEWTON FALLS

A man, 25, was stabbed with a pocket knife around 1:17 a.m. Sunday as he traveled toward the entrance to the Newton Village Apartments on Ridge Road, according to Trumbull County 911 Center reports, which did not indicate whether the victim was on foot or in a vehicle.

Neither did the 911 Center log indicate how severe the victim’s injuries. The victim’s father called 911 saying his son was conscious.

Police later learned that two males were involved in the stabbing, which was initially described as a mugging and stabbing. At the time of the incident, it was not known if anything was taken from the victim.

Personnel from the Ohio State Highway Patrol and the Trumbull County Sheriff’s Office assisted Newton Falls police in looking for the suspects, who as of 2:12 a.m. had not been found.
