Man Critically Injured in Bristol Stabbing

A 30-year-old Bristol man was found seriously injured on the side of the road early Sunday morning and police are investigating.

Bristol police said that the man was assaulted at around 3:30 a.m. this morning in the area of 361 King Street.

Police said the unidentified victim was found by a passersby and taken to Bristol Hospital with life-threatening stab wounds. He was airlifted to Hartford Hospital for further treatment and remains in critical condition, police said.

Police say the people who drove the victim to the hospital reported they found the man lying in the roadway in front of a house on 361 King Street. Those who live in that home told NBC Connecticut they slept through the incident.

Some neighbors were surprised to see crime tape and police cars outside their windows when they woke up.

“I’m very surprised because this is a good town and this area is great. We don’t have anything like this happen,” said neighbor Ann Conroy.

“Very surprised. You know this is a real quiet neighborhood. We’re all in cahoots with each other, so stuff like this, it shakes the neighborhood up. It scares people,” added Antwain Berry.

King Street from Stonecrest Drive to Holt Street was closed off for hours while police investigated.

No arrests have been made at this time.

Anyone with information on this incident is asked to contact the Bristol Police Department at 860-584-3011.
