DRAPER, Utah, Nov. 15, 2020 (Gephardt Daily) — Three women were rushed to area hospitals Sunday morning after a stabbing inside a Draper home.

Draper Police Lt. Dave Harris told Gephardt Daily officers were called to a residence on S. Emerald Peak Court about 9:06 a.m. and found the women, all in their 20s, injured inside the home.

Two of the women were residents, while the third was visiting, according to Harris.

He said one of the residents grew angry and attacked the other two women, stabbing them with a large kitchen knife.

Harris said both stabbing victims were taken to the hospital, with what were described as non life-threatening injuries.

The alleged attacker also required medical treatment, although the nature and extent of her injuries were undisclosed.

At one point, detectives called for an arson investigator amid reports something had been burned inside the home.

Harris anticipated crime scene investigators would be at the residence throughout the day.

The alleged assailant is facing possible domestic violence charges and aggravated assault, Harris said.

Gephardt Daily will update the story as more information becomes available.
