HASTINGS, Neb. (KSNB) - Hastings Police arrested a Hastings man who is accused of stabbing another man Monday afternoon.

Hastings Police said it happened around 4:30 p.m. in the 2400 block of west 8th Street.

HPD Sgt. Robert Brooks said 25-year-old Jordan Menze assaulted another 25-year-old man with a knife.

Sgt. Brooks said it apparently started over the suspect’s dog chewing up the victim’s shoe. He said it turned into a verbal argument that escalated with a knife being pulled.

HPD said the victim suffered superficial stab wounds on his back and one on his face. He was taken to Mary Lanning Healthcare with what’s believed to be non-life-threatening injuries.

Menze was arrested for second-degree assault with a deadly weapon, resisting arrest and obstructing a police officer.
