PITTSBURGH — A suspect is in custody after a person who had been stabbed arrived at a Pittsburgh hospital on Wednesday night.
A spokesperson for Pittsburgh Police said officers were called to the 600 block of East North Avenue in North Side at 6:30 p.m. after several reports were made about a male who had been stabbed there. Police did not find a victim at the scene.
A short time later, the suspected victim arrived at a local hospital with stab wounds. Police said they got there on foot.
The victim told police that he was trying to get stolen bags back from the suspect, later identified as Jonathan Curry, but they ended up fighting, and Curry allegedly stabbed him near his eye.
Detectives were able to get a description of Curry from people at the initial crime scene. Police said a male who matched the description was found at Concord Street and Madison Avenue nearby.
Curry was taken into custody and later charged with aggravated assault. He is now being held at the Allegheny County Jail.
