3 hospitalized, teen in custody after stabbing at Foxwoods

MASHANTUCKET — One teen is in custody after a stabbing Saturday afternoon at Foxwoods Resort Casino, police said.

At 2:18 p.m., police were alerted to a stabbing at Tanger Outlet mall at Foxwoods involving four people, said Capt. George Potts of the Mashantucket Tribal Police Department.

“Three young adult victims were transported to a local hospital with non-life-threatening injuries, and a 15-year-old suspect was arrested and is in custody,” Potts said.

He said units immediately responded and contained the incident, so there was no lockdown needed and regular business quickly resumed without further problems.

“As this investigation is ongoing, no further comment will be available,” Potts said.
