Authorities say a man who stabbed
three family members during a dispute at a southern New Jersey home is now
facing aggravated assault charges.
Pleasantville police responded to the
home early Saturday after someone approached an officer in the department’s parking lot to report a domestic
disturbance.
The officer went to the house and saw
Maynor Moreno-Mejia, 37, running from the residence.
The three stabbing victims, two men
and a woman, were soon found in the house. One man remains hospitalized in
critical but stable condition, while the other two victims had less serious
injuries.
It's not known if Moreno-Mejia has
retained an attorney.
