PORT ANGELES — A Port Angeles man was booked into the Clallam County jail Saturday for investigation of attacking a relative with a knife.
Lawrence Lee, 21, of Port Angeles was being held for investigation of second-degree assault, domestic violence, said interim Chief Brian Smith of the Port Angeles Police Department.
At 1:22 a.m. Saturday, officers responded to a reported domestic disturbance between two cousins who lived in the same residence, Smith said.
By the time the police arrived, the two men had been separated, he said.
Smith said officers were told that the two cousins had been involved in a verbal argument that turned physical.
During the fight, Lee stabbed the other man in the side and slashed his arm with a kitchen knife, Smith said.
The injured man was taken to Olympic Medical Center, Smith said, and was treated and discharged.
