A man was taken to the hospital and another man was arrested after an argument between the two led to a stabbing, according to police.
The attack happened around 9:20 p.m. Thursday, March 7, on Lime Avenue near 59th Street, Long Beach police spokesman Alvino Herrera said.
Police said the two men were in a house on that block when they started arguing and one stabbed the other with a knife.
The two men know each other, Herrera said, but police did not give any more information on their relationship or what the argument was about.
Medics took the victim to a local hospital to treat wounds that weren’t life-threatening, police said.
They arrested 40-year-old Robert Vergara, a Long Beach resident, according to Herrera.
Vergara was held in lieu of $40,000 bail on suspicion of assault with a deadly weapon, according to jail records.
