Three young men are facing charges after a scuffle with city police last night. Staff Sgt. Don Cooper tells CHSJ news officers received a call about men acting drunk and disorderly around 7:30pm yesterday evening on MacLaren Blvd. The men allegedly came at police and one of the officers was knocked to the ground.
Staff Sgt. Cooper says the men--ages 18 and 19--will appear in court at a later date for assaulting a peace officer. One man is still in custody until he sobers up later this morning.
Meanwhile, police are looking into a stabbing on the West Side around 9:30pm last night. Police say one man suffered minor injuries after being stabbed in the hand on Suffolk Street. No arrests have been made.
