A 15-year-old boy was taken to a hospital with cuts Tuesday night after a boy he was fist fighting pulled out a pocket knife, according to police.
Officers with the Vancouver Police Department were dispatched at about 8:45 p.m. to a weapons disturbance outside the Chevron gas station at 13707 N.E. 28th St. in east Vancouver. Police learned that two 15-year-old boys got in a fight and that one of boys sliced the other on his arm and face, Officer Eric McCaleb said.
His wounds were not life threatening, and he was taken to a hospital, he said.
The boy with the knife fled the scene but was found less than an hour later at a nearby apartment complex, McCaleb said. He was arrested and likely will face charges in juvenile court, McCaleb said.
