(KAIR)--Two separate, weekend violent crimes in Atchison, one involving a stabbing and the other involving a threat with a knife, land three in custody.
Both crimes occurred Sunday, according to Atchison Police Chief Mike Wilson, who, in a release, says one of the two cases involved Atchison Police responding to the 800 block of South 5th Street where officers "began an investigation that focused on an incident that had occurred between two people" at that location, although neither was there when police arrived.
Instead, Wilson says, "officers soon learned that a [31-year-old woman] was at [Atchison's] Amberwell Hospital being treated for a stab wound to the leg, leading investigators to determine "that an argument had occurred between two females who were known to each other and had been in a vehicle together when the two exited the vehicle in the 800 block South 5th Street where a disturbance occurred and the 31 year old victim was stabbed in the leg."
Taken to the hospital by a family member, the woman was treated and released, as police continued their search for a 29-year-old suspect who was located shortly after 9:00 Sunday night in the 400 block of South 10th Street.
Arrested was Allison Blakely, of Atchison, who was taken into custody on charges for allegedly committing the stabbing, with Wilson adding that, at the time of her arrest, Blakely was allegedly in the possession of fentanyl, drug paraphernalia, and marijuana, and also faces those related charges.
She was booked into the Atchison County Jail.
The other case unfolded around 7:00 Sunday evening when officers were called to a disturbance at an Atchison hotel, located in the 400 block of South 10th Street, where they "determined that a disturbance had occurred between two men" who knew each other; and during that argument, the 35-year-old suspect threatened the 24-year-old victim with a knife.
The suspect, identified as Laredo, Texas resident Ignacio Gonzalez, was taken into custody at the scene, arrested for aggravated assault.
Also arrested was another man at the scene, identified as Daniel Shaw, who was arrested for interference with law enforcement.
The victim was not reported as suffering any injuries.
Once in custody, both Gonzalez and Shaw were booked into the Atchison County Jail.
