About 2:05 a.m., South Bend police responded to an alley near the corner of Huron and South Carlisle streets for a report of vandalism in progress.

There, a 31-year-old man told them two suspects in the vandalism had just fled down the alley and between two houses. He also said one of the suspects had been stabbed.

When the officer asked who stabbed the suspect, the man said he had and displayed a knife, police said.

Meanwhile, another officer radioed that he had the two suspects in custody, and that one of them, an 18-year-old South Bend man, had multiple stab wounds to the back.

Police then arrested the 31-year-old man on suspicion of aggravated assault.

During questioning, the man admitted again to stabbing the 18-year-old, but said it was in self-defense.

According to police, a heated argument broke out between the man and the two vandalism suspects after he witnessed them spray-painting graffiti on a garage in the alley for a second time early Tuesday.

During the argument, police said, the 18-year-old reportedly pushed the man multiple times.

When the man displayed a knife, police said, the 18-year-old asked jokingly what he was going to do with it and then made a fist as if to hit him.

Police said that’s when the man came down with the knife, stabbing the 18-year-old in the upper back several times.

The teenager was taken to an area hospital for treatment of his wounds, which were reportedly not life-threatening.
