A Rochelle man was arrested yesterday evening in the Hub City following a stabbing incident that took place at an apartment.
30-year old Scott Cook was arrested on 2 counts of aggravated battery and also on an Ogle County warrant for failure to appear in court on the original charge of larceny.
The altercation took place a short time before 7:30 in the 800 block of Lincoln Highway. A 24-year old man was stabbed in the right side of the head and left shoulder with a kitchen knife during the incident. He was taken by ambulance to Rochelle Community Hospital for treatment of his non-life threatening injuries.
A second person in the apartment apparently received a cut on his neck from the kitchen knife, but refused medical treatment.
Police say that Cook was intoxicated when the fight took place. He was transported by ambulance to Rochelle Community Hospital for treatment prior to being taken to the Ogle County jail with no bond set.
