Four hurt in beer bottle brawl

Someone got riled up at a large party early Saturday in an apartment complex on South Academy Boulevard and went after other revelers with a broken beer bottle.

Four people went to the hospital with cuts and stab wounds from the broken bottle, but none of the injuries were life threatening, said Sgt. Randy Thomas of the Colorado Springs Police Department.

No arrests have been made, but police said they’ve identified a suspect.

Thomas said two of the victims were treated at the hospital and released and the others are doing well.

The 2 a.m. incident occurred after a fight broke out at a party in an apartment complex at 1115 S. Academy Blvd. The fight had moved outside when the stabbings occurred, police said.
