LISBON

The Lisbon Police Department has arrested a woman in relation to a stabbing that took place early Sunday morning in the parking lot of the Farwell Mill Apartments on Lisbon Street.  

At 1:58 a.m., the Lisbon Police Department received a report of two women and a man fighting in the Farwell Mill Apartments parking lot. Responding officers located two of the three persons involved in the altercation.    

The third person involved, an unknown female, was reportedly stabbed at least twice in the arm and neck before she fled on foot from the scene. Police found blood at the scene, and a canine search led them to the area of Village and Park streets. Lisbon officers continued to process the scene while also searching for the wounded woman.  

At approximately 6:30 a.m., Lisbon Police Department officers made contact with the victim, a 32 year old woman currently residing in Lisbon, at a nearby apartment. Police say she did in-fact have wounds consistent with having been stabbed, but has declined medical attention. 

About three hours later, police arrested Lindsay Knight, 38, of Lisbon Street and charged her with aggravated assault in relation to the stabbing. She was released on $500 cash bail, and has a Dec. 7 court date in Androscoggin County Superior Court.   

Sunday afternoon, police released information about the arrest at which time there was no further information available on the stabbing victim’s medical condition. Lisbon police recovered the weapon involved in the incident.       

The Lisbon Police Department continues to investigate and urges anyone who witnessed this incident to contact Sgt. Harry Moore at 353-2500.
