LAUREL, Del.- Police are investigating a stabbing that occurred Wednesday night, which left a man hurt and sent officers to two separate scenes.

According to officials, at about 7:26 p.m., officers responded to the 200 block of the Little Creek Apartment complex for reports of a fight. While on scene, officers were also called to the 500 block of Center Street. There, they say they found an unresponsive man with a stab wound to his abdomen.
