Atchison stabbing suspect arrested Wednesday

(KAIR)--An Atchison man faces numerous charges following what Atchison Police say was an early Monday morning stabbing during a disturbance at a residence in the 1000 block of North 10th Street.

A young child also suffered injuries not related to the alleged stabbing.

According to a report from Atchison Police Chief Mike Wilson, officers, around 5:00 Monday morning, responded to the residence and found that a 38-year-old man had been stabbed with a knife, and struck with a brick. The same 24-year-old suspect was also blamed when police learned a 35-year-old woman had been physically struck, and knocked to the ground, while holding a 2-year-old child.

The suspect fled from the scene, but was located Wednesday.

Arrested in connection with the attacks was Atchison resident Jarvis Grace.
According to Wilson, Grace was taken into custody on an Atchison County District Court warrant charging him with aggravated battery, domestic battery, endangering a child, and criminal damage to property.

Grace was booked into the Atchison County Jail. His bond is set at $30,000.
Following the Saturday night attack, the stabbing victim was transported for hospital treatment by Atchison County EMS, and later released.

The woman and child both suffered injuries, but Wilson said they were not transported to the hospital.
