Man Fatally Stabbed at Lincoln Birthday Party

lincoln-policeLINCOLN, Neb. (AP) — Authorities say a man has been arrested in the fatal stabbing of a relative at a family birthday party in Lincoln.

Police spokeswoman Katie Flood says officers were dispatched to a southwest Lincoln home a little after 10:30 p.m. Tuesday. A wounded man found there was rushed to a local hospital. Flood says the man died at the hospital about 3 a.m. Wednesday.

Flood says a suspect was arrested at the scene of the party and jailed on suspicion of second-degree murder. She says officers also found a knife they think was used in the slaying.

Flood didn’t release the names of those involved or explain whether they are related.
