A man was stabbed at Fiddlestrings Sports Bar, 3301 Arden Road, early this morning at 12:15 a.m. That is what the radio said as police rushed to the popular watering hole.
Upon our arrival, we saw a sizable crowd in the parking lot. An ambulance had just sped off with lights and sirens blaring.

He said further details were pending the outcome of the investigation. The police Criminal Investigations Division (CID) joined the investigation, gathering forensic and other evidence from the scene.
Over the radio, police dispatch said that the victim was a male in his 30s.

PermalinkI talked to the city PIO Anthony Wilson a couple of weeks ago. He said that that the project was very much on track. With the holidays and all, they were trying to find a good time to have a celebration and grand opening. He said to expect an announcement soon. --Joe
