Six Stabbed at 1-Year-Old's Birthday Party - Yahoo! News
EAST HARTFORD, Conn. - Six people were stabbed early Sunday during a melee at a 1-year-old's birthday party, police said. It apparently started when a downstairs neighbor went upstairs to complain about the noise.
The injured were taken to Hartford and St. Francis hospitals, where they were treated for stab wounds to their faces and necks. All were later released.
Police said they received several 911 calls around 12:45 a.m. They arrived at a two-family home on Crosby Street to find dozens of people running around in a thunderstorm. Some were screaming and bleeding.
Most spoke only Spanish, adding to the chaos. A Spanish-speaking officer from Manchester was eventually brought into translate.
Four carloads of men showed up to join the fight and police said some may have been affiliated with a gang.
Sweet mother of pearl, but can you even begin to imagine what it must have been like trying to sort all that out? CARloads of hispanics wielding knives, screaming and racing hither and yon, then back to hither again. Tsk, tsk, just wait till the Brady-Bunch get wind of this, it's Birthday-Cake-Knife-Ban time for sure.
