January 14, 2019 - Charges have been filed against a suspect arrested in a stabbing incident at 12630 Ashford Point Drive #303 about 7:20 p.m. on Saturday (January 12).

The suspect, Christopher Clark b/m, 27), is charged with  two counts of burglary of a habitation with intent to assault a family member and one count of burglary of a habitation with intent to commit assault in the 263rd State District Court.  A photo of Clark is not available at this time.

HPD Major Assaults & Family Violence Detectives Z. Brumley and M. Althaus reported:

Two residents (female, 53 and male, 20) were inside their apartment at the above address when the suspect, Clark, kicked in the patio door and entered.  Once inside, he attacked both residents until they fled outside.  The woman then re-entered the apartment to get a four-year-old child.  As she grabbed the child, Clark again attacked her and pushed her on top of the child. During the assault, the woman produced a knife and stabbed Clark multiple times in the legs.  The male resident and another man, 40, then attempted to pull Clark off the woman.  Clark continued attacking the male resident until the woman stabbed him again.  All three victims then fled the residence until police arrived.

Clark was transported to an area hospital for treatment of what are believed to be non-life-threatening wounds and is being held on the above charges.

There are no additional charges in this incident.
