Begins with Reported Stabbing |
| |
Investigators
rang in the new year by arresting a Connelly Springs man after he allegedly
stabbed another man Wednesday.
Deputies were called to Grace Hospital in
reference to a stabbing in which William Michael Huffman, 30, was being treated
for wounds to his lower torso. Investigators were told Huffman was stabbed by
Jody Robert Morrison (right), 32, of 5202 Old
Highway 18 South. |
 |
|
| The incident reportedly occurred at Huffman's
residence on Laurel Creek Avenue. Huffman was allegedly stabbed after
attempting to stop Morrison from driving after he (Morrison) had been
drinking. |
| |
| Morrison was later arrested by officers after a
domestic argument with his wife shortly after the stabbing. He was charged with
assault with a deadly weapon with intent to kill inflicting serious bodily
injury and jailed at the Burke Catawba District Confinement
Facility. |
| |
| Huffman remains in stable condition at Grace
Hospital. Morrison's bond was set at $100,000 and he has a first court
appearance Friday. |
