Two roommates from Hamden are facing charges after police say one stabbed another, who in turn attacked medical personnel in an ambulance bringing him to the hospital.
The incident sent six Hamden police officers to the hospital for treatment of injuries or exposure to blood.
Andrew Stolar, 32, was arrested Thursday afternoon and charged with two counts of assault on emergency medical personnel and disorderly conduct.
His roommate, Shawn Williams, 52, was also charged with disorderly conduct.
Police said the two got into a violent fight at their home at 1879 State Street in Hamden around 3:30 p.m. Thursday during which Williams stabbed Stolar. Police arrived to find Stolar lying on the floor bleeding.
Stolar and Williams were put into ambulances and taken to the hospital. While inside the ambulance, Stolar attacked two American Medical Response members who were treating him, according to police.
Both men were held on $25,000 bond and were scheduled to appear in court Friday. It's not clear if they have attorneys.
