News Release
Hillsboro Police Investigate Stabbing at Taco Bell - 01/18/19

At 2:41 a.m., officers responded to a reported stabbing at Taco Bell, 977 S.W. Oak St.  As a man tried to force his way into the closed dining room, employees barricaded themselves in the office. The man stabbed an employee in the wrist, causing a minor non-life threatening injury. 

The man then entered the walk-in freezer where officers found him with apparent self-inflicted stab wounds.  The man was still armed with the knife.  Officers used less-lethal devices, including a Taser, to disarm the man.  He was taken into custody and transported to the hospital by ambulance. 

The investigation is ongoing; names are not released at this time.
