A man and a woman have been taken to the hospital with stab wounds, police said Friday.
Mesa Police Detective Steven Berry said dispatchers received a phone call around 8:30 a.m. reporting a stabbing in the parking lot of Kleinman Park near 8th Avenue and Extension Road.
Officers arrived and found an adult man and woman inside a vehicle with stab wounds. They were both taken to the hospital in critical conditions, said Berry.
He said the man and woman appear to be a couple. The circumstances of how and why the stabbing occurred were still being investigated, he said.
In an earlier email, Berry said, citing preliminary information, that the man stabbed the woman and then himself, a possible result of a"domestic situation."
