COLUMBIA, Mo. (KMIZ)

Police tape was put up around the Break Time on Business Loop 70 and Garth Avenue in Columbia on Thursday following an assault.

A Columbia police officer at the scene said police were called for a reported assault. The officer said the suspect in the assault was in custody and the victim was brought to an area hospital.

Two men were fighting in the parking lot of the gas station, according to Columbia Police Department spokesman Brian McNeill. He then said a woman “got involved” and was stabbed with a knife. She was brought to an area hospital with serious injuries, McNeill said. Police were called to the area at 6:48 p.m.

McNeill did not describe the weapon that was used. He also said there is no threat to the community.

Six Columbia Police Department officers, a sheriff’s deputy and a K-9 were at the scene. The entire gas station was roped off.
