Brawl Between Several Adults Leads to Stabbings

Salem-News.com

(MOLALLA) - A brawl between seven adults left two men with serious stab wounds in the Molalla area Friday. Police say a third man received other non life-threatening injuries and was transported to the hospital.

Details are sketchy, but police say the situation apparently involves six adult men and one adult woman, described as all being in their late 30`s, who consumed alcohol while on a fishing trip.

Clackamas County Sheriff's deputies responded to the stabbing incident at 36234 S. Dickey Prairie Road in Molalla Friday shortly after 8:00 PM.

Detective Jim Strovink with the Clackamas County Sheriff`s Office says investigators are having a difficult time figuring out what actually happened, `No apparent motive has been determined and no arrests have been made as deputies continue to sort out all the conflicting stories provided by all the subjects involved."

He says at least one Sheriff's supervisor on the scene is under the impression the injuries the patients received during this stabbing event occurred after a fishing trip earlier in the day and alcohol was involved.

Investigators say everybody that was involved has either been detained in the area, at the scene, or transported to the hospital for injuries.

One of the stabbing victims was transported by helicopter to Emanuel Hospital, the second patient was also transported, by ambulance, to Emanuel Hospital.

An additional male subject may also be transported by ambulance to a local hospital to attend to the minor physical injuries he received during the scuffle; this is not a knife wound and not considered life threatening.
