Onset stabbing sends one to hospital

Aug 18, 2010

A male was stabbed in Onset on Saturday at approximately 4:30 p.m., Public Information Officer William Fihlman has confirmed.

Fihlman said the victim was treated for his injuries and released. Wareham Emergency Medical Services confirmed that victim was taken by medical flight to a city hospital.

Though the stabbing occurred during the hours of the Cape Verdean Festival, it took place east of the tennis courts off Union Avenue, and the two events were not related, Fihlman said.

Wareham Police detectives are continuing to investigate the incident, Filhman said. No other information is available at this time.
