LAWRENCE (KSNT) – A man is under arrest after allegedly using a knife to attack a woman who was camping in Lawrence Wednesday night.

On Thursday, May 2 the Lawrence Kansas Police Department (LKPD) issued a press release regarding the incident. Police responded to the 800 block of Pennsylvania just before midnight on May 1 on a report of a stabbing.

The victim said she was camping at a nearby campsite when an argument started and a man she knew pulled a knife and stabbed her in the thigh. The victim was taken to an area hospital where she’s expected to recover.
