One person died Wednesday night after being stabbed at a home on North Hammett Street in Anderson County, and a person of interest is already in custody as investigators work to piece together what happened.
Anderson County dispatch confirmed an investigation is underway after the person was stabbed to death, according to FOX Carolina News. Deputies were called to the North Hammett Street address in Anderson County, South Carolina, where the stabbing was reported. The outlet reported that the incident occurred Wednesday night.
Dispatch told the station that a person of interest is in custody, though it remains unclear what charges, if any, that individual may ultimately face. No further details on the victim, the circumstances leading up to the stabbing, or the investigating agency's next steps have been released.
Limited Details as Investigation Continues
Beyond the basic dispatch account, little else about the case has been made public. The exact address, the identity of the person who died, and the nature of the confrontation that led to the stabbing have not been confirmed. This is a developing story, and Hoodline will update as more verified information becomes available.
Anderson County has seen other violent incidents reported this year. In February, deputies investigated a separate altercation in which one person was struck with a bottle and another was stabbed, with those involved described at the time as providing limited information, per a report from WSPA. That case does not appear connected to Wednesday night's fatal stabbing.
