HOWELL: At approximately 1210 hours this morning Howell Police Communications received a 9-1-1 call reporting multiple people stabbed at Rodina Hall located at 243 Alexander Ave.

Upon arrival, Howell officers were faced with a chaotic scene. They were met by security personnel who led them to three male victims who had significant injuries after being stabbed.

The officers were told three suspects fled the scene of this large party. Officers Hurley and Norton quickly located two of the three along Rt.9. They were identified as a 17 year old from Lakewood and a 44 year old resident of Patterson. They were detained.

Three Howell Police K9s responded along with our drone that is equipped with an infrared camera to search for the third. As of now, that third person has not been located. It is also speculated there may not have been a third person involved.
