¢ A 41-year-old Lawrence man was arrested Sunday evening on suspicion of stabbing another Lawrence man during an altercation in the 2200 block of Harper Street.

Lawrence police spokeswoman Sgt. Susan Hadl said the men were apparent acquaintances and visiting until a disturbance broke out between them for an unknown reason. It became physical when the 41-year-old man allegedly wielded a pocket knife and stabbed the other man once. The suspect then ran away, but officers quickly found him and took him in for questioning.

He was arrested without incident on charges of aggravated battery and possession of marijuana with intent to sell, according to Douglas County Jail records. The man remained in jail Monday night in lieu of $3,000 bond.

Hadl said the man who was stabbed refused medical treatment but was later admitted to Lawrence Memorial Hospital for observation.
