The Tigard Police Department is investigating a stabbing where a 15-year-old boy reportedly stabbed another 15-year-old boy.
Just before 3:30 PM today, officers were called to Cook Park for an assault with a weapon. Responding officers found a 15-year-old victim who had been stabbed. He was rushed to the hospital and is in stable condition.
Witnesses immediately identified the suspect, who was located nearby by responding officers. He was safely taken into custody and is being transferred to the Donald E. Long Juvenile Detention Center on charges of assault II and unlawful use of a weapon.
Because he is a juvenile, the name of the suspect is not being released at this time.
