Suspect Arrested In Carmichael Triple Stabbing

CARMICHAEL (CBS13) – Sacramento County Sheriff's deputies have arrested a man suspected of beating his wife and stabbing three relatives with a steak knife in Carmichael after a night of drinking.

Deputies responded to a home on Enfield Street overnight after getting an incomplete 911 call. 

When they arrived, they found a man on the front lawn with a stab wound to his chest.  He was taken to the hospital in critical condition.

Two people inside the home had also been stabbed.  One had part of a finger cut off while the other had been stabbed in the hip.

Deputies say the victims had apparently tried to stop the 30-year-old suspect from beating his wife after a night of drinking.

The suspect was arrested a short time later.

The wife had an eye injury.  The victims are all expected to be OK.
