Brownwood Police responded to the report of an assault in the 1600-1700 block of Main Blvd. at approximately 4:00 p.m. on Wednesday which left one man with a laceration to his leg.
According to law enforcement, the injured male had head-butted a female earlier in the day, and when his girlfriend and the female came to pick up the girlfriend’s belongings along with two other males, an argument ensued. The female told police that she thought things could become heated so she brought a knife, which was being carried in her hand beside her leg as she walked. When the male approached her and chest bumped her, the knife cut his leg, according to the woman’s account to police.
The male was taken to the emergency room; however, he was under the influence of narcotics according to police, and decided to run off from the hospital before receiving stitches for the laceration, wearing only his boxers. Police later located the male.
No arrests were made at the time of the incident, which is pending further investigation.
