KALAMAZOO, MI (WKZO AM/FM) – Two people arguing over money led to a stabbing incident Monday morning in Kalamazoo.
Around 8:40 a.m., officers with the Kalamazoo Department of Public Safety responded to multiple reports of a stabbing that was occurring in the 100 block of East North Street.
Officers arrived in the area and were able to quickly locate the involved parties and make an arrest, due to multiple witness reports.
Police it was determined that an altercation occurred involving money and one of the subjects produced a knife and stabbed the other multiple times. KDPS officials says this was not a random act as the two subjects were acquainted with each other.
The victim, a 52-year-old Kalamazoo resident, was transported to a local hospital for non-life-threatening injuries.
Another daily stabbing and shooting , as is common in Kalamazoo and that is why it is the 6th most dangerous city to live in Michigan and the 32nd in the United States. Never a thought of helping these people deal with their drug/alcohol problems. Enablers. At least we have gone down from the 2nd most dangerous since our POS was discharged (hopefully). So much corruption in the City, much led by Mary Balkema, who was previously our Treasurer until charged with “criminal” activities and the corruption goes on. I recall a picture on line where she was working on a house she managed? to get and along with Chief Coakley and Stephanie Bell a/k/a whatever, and her mother were all working on another house for Mothers of Hope, which I am sure many people have become wealthy. Likewise I am sure our Mayor and others have done well. Shameful!
