On April 25, 2023, at approximately 1:45 a.m., General Patrol officers, with the assistance of the Tactical Support Team, responded to a gun call with a reported stabbing at a residence in the 500 block of Flora Avenue.
Officers located a 12-year-old female victim who had been stabbed. They provided emergency medical care, and she was transported to hospital by paramedics in unstable condition.
An investigation determined a group of teens were gathering at the residence when one of the party-goers (a 13-year-old female) was ousted from the residence.
