About 5:59 p.m. Tuesday, Aberdeen Police Department officers were dispatched to a report of a stabbing that occurred in the 100 block of North Mill Street.

According to Commander Dale Green, upon arrival officers located the victim who stated he got into an argument with a neighbor over a recently delivered package. The neighbor became upset and stabbed the victim one time.

Aberdeen Fire Department paramedics responded to treat the victim.

Aberdeen police officers surrounded the suspect’s apartment, and he refused to surrender. The suspect had outstanding warrants for his arrest. On-scene Aberdeen Regional Crisis Response Operators were able to deploy their ThrowBot (a robot equipped with video and audio equipment) to clear the living area of the residence. Officers safely made entry into the apartment and located the suspect hiding behind a recliner.

The suspect, a 51-year-old Aberdeen resident, was taken into custody without further incident. The package and knife were both recovered. The suspect was transported to the Aberdeen Police Department where he was booked for assault 4th degree.
