\nLouisville Metro Police have made an arrest after a woman and a 6-year-old boy was stabbed in the Pleasure Ridge Park neighborhood on Wednesday.<\/p>\n
Sequoia S. Porter, 28, is facing charges of attempted murder and assault in connection to the incident that occurred in the 5800 block of Bruns Drive around 6:30 a.m. on Wednesday, according to LMPD Sgt. Matt Sanders.<\/p>\n
Porter was found after receiving information from the public leading to the possible suspect\u2019s location in a wooded area close to Brinson Drive.<\/p>\n
Police said Porter was found hiding in the woods and was arrested without incident.<\/p>\n
Earlier in the day, officers found a woman and a child with stab wounds on Bruns Drive. Investigation revealed the stabbing occurred after a fight with the suspect, who left the scene a short time later.<\/p>\n
Sanders said despite neighbors and social media posts, police have no reason to believe the incident has \u201cgang involvement.\u201d<\/p>\n
The child was taken to Norton Children\u2019s Hospital in serious condition, but police later confirmed that the boy finished a long surgery and is recovering.<\/p>\n
Police said the woman was listed in serious condition within University Hospital but is expected to survive.<\/p>\n
Porter is expected to appear in court on June 29. Louisville Metro Police Department is handling the ongoing investigation.
