24-year-old man stabbed 4 times

Jeffery Abel was arrested and preliminarily charged with a Class B felony count of aggravated battery Wednesday after repeatedly stabbing a 24-year-old male Tuesday evening in the 2400 block of South Winslow Court.

The victim told police he and Abel have had an ongoing conflict over a woman.

According to the BPD report, the victim, Christopher Harrison, “was stabbed at least four times: in the left shoulder-blade, left side abdomen, left arm and left hand.”

Officers said Harrison suffered internal bleeding and a punctured lung.

By the time officers arrived at the scene, Abel had fled.

Detective Richard Crussen interviewed Abel on Wednesday afternoon. Abel claimed to have been in a fight with Harrison but denied stabbing him.
