Police arrested a man who allegedly stabbed a friend overnight in Lawrence’s Oread neighborhood.

Police were dispatched about 2:20 a.m. Wednesday to a disturbance with weapons in the 1300 block of Ohio Street, according to Officer Derrick Smith of the Lawrence Police Department.

There had reportedly been a physical altercation between two friends, during which the suspect stabbed the victim with a knife, Smith said. He said the victim sustained a laceration and was treated by paramedics at the scene but declined transportation to the hospital.

The suspect was arrested on suspicion of aggravated battery, Smith said.

The man arrested in connection with the incident is Edward G. David, 52, of Lawrence, who lives in that block, according to jail records.

David was charged and made his first appearance in court Wednesday afternoon, where a judge set his bond at $7,500, according to court records.
