HUTCHINSON, Kan. — Police and other emergency personnel were called to the report of a stabbing just before 8 a.m. Monday at an apartment in the 500 block of East 3rd.
A 64-year-old male and his 35-year-old daughter got into an argument. Both were injured. The daughter was treated for her cut wounds at Hutchinson Regional Medical Center while the father was taken to a Wichita hospital.
“Neither have been very cooperative and the story doesn’t make sense,” Hutchinson Police Lt. Dustin Leopp said. Leopp says illegal drugs may be involved.
He says it may be a couple of days before they know exactly what happened. No arrests have been made. Because it is a domestic case, Leopp couldn’t release the names.

The victim was taken to Hutchinson Regional Medical Center in critical condition and a medical helicopter was requested.
