No stabbing; definitely a cutting, however.
FLORA, Ill.—An incident in Flora last night has everybody talking, but according to police chief John Nicholson, one man was cut, and the investigation into the matter is ongoing.
Nicholson announced on the department’s Facebook page this morning that Flora PD had received a call around 9 p.m. last night (Wednesday, October 1) from a male who advised that he “needed help.”
Responding officers found the man in an alley just to the east of Huck’s Convenience Store in the mid-town area.
The man had wounds described as “lacerations” that looked to have been inflicted by some type of cutting instrument; Nicholson advised that the wounds were not life-threatening.
The man was transported to the local hospital for these injuries and he was treated and released two hours after arrival.
The investigation is ongoing; but Nicholson cautions those interested in the case about the wild rumors that are going around about it (we at Disclosure had been receiving input since about 11 last night on the matter). Apparently everything is under control and authorities are still gathering information and working on the case.
