Multiple people stabbed on Indy's east side

Police said the stabbings happened Wednesday near 42nd Street and Post Road around 3:45 p.m.

INDIANAPOLIS — Four people were taken to the hospital Wednesday with stab wounds after an altercation on the far east side of Indianapolis. 

The incident happened around 3:45 p.m. in the 9500 block of East 42nd Street, near North Post Road. Officers responded to a report of a disturbance and found four adults — a man and three women — who had apparently been stabbed. One of the victims also had a gunshot wound.

Detectives believe an argument took place before the stabbings. The person police believe to have been the aggressor in the altercation was the one who was shot, police said.

Two of the victims, including the male, were found outside.

All four victims, who have not been identified, were taken to the hospital in serious condition. Their conditions were all stable when they were transported, according to an IMPD spokesperson.

Police told 13News all four people involved in the disturbance knew each other.

The investigation into the altercation and stabbing is ongoing. Police said the weapons involved in the incident were recovered, but they did not have a suspect in custody as of early Wednesday evening.
