A 21-year-old drunken man left a West Texas country music festival last weekend with a stab wound in the butt to go along with a possible hangover, according to information released by the Midland County Sheriff’s Office.

Emergency personnel responded to the assault incident at about 10:22 p.m. Saturday at Crude Fest, a three-day country music festival in Midland, where a highly intoxicated man "had a stab wound in his left buttocks area that was bleeding profusely," the release said.

Deputies applied immediate first aid to stem the bleeding until paramedics arrived, according to the release.

The victim was taken to Midland Memorial Hospital, where he was treated and released.

Investigators talked with the man’s girlfriend to try and track down witnesses or suspect information but that offered no leads in the case. The girlfriend did detail a man and woman who had a disturbance earlier, but investigators did not find those individuals for questioning, according to the release.

Anyone with information in this ongoing case can contact Midland Crime Stoppers at 432-394-8477.
