On Thursday, July 11th, 2024
at approximately 0339 hours I was dispatched to 960 Joe Frank Harris Parkway (Piedmont Cartersville Medical Center), Cartersville, Georgia 30121 in reference to a male that had been stabbed and arrived at the hospital.
Upon my arrival, I met with [VICTIM ] who was being bandaged by medical staff due to having a stab wound to the left side of his head. Deputies were advised by Piedmont Cartersville Medical Center Security Officers that [VICTIM ] showed up to the hospital in a 2003 GMC Yukon bearing Georgia tag [REDACTED] being driven by [WITNESS ] who was in the lobby.
I could observe [VICTIM ] being intoxicated and could smell alcohol on his breath. Due to [VICTIM ] speaking very little English, I used a translation service to try and communicate with [VICTIM ]. From what I could understand from [VICTIM ] due to how intoxicated he was and utilizing translation services, [VICTIM ] was in an area at the Glen Apartments on Grassdale Rd when he got in a car and went to “The Indian’s” house. At “The Indian’s” house, he was watching a soccer game when he got into a fist fight. [VICTIM ] said he was winning the fight when the other male took out a knife and stabbed him in the head. [VICTIM ] said [WITNESS ] then picked him up and brought him to the hospital. [VICTIM ] does not know “The Indian’s” name or where he lives. I brought out a map in an attempt to locate where the incident occurred and [VICTIM ] was unable to make out the address.
[WITNESS ] told deputies that he was not present when the fight occurred but observed [VICTIM ] walking on Rome Highway 411, picked him up, noticed he was injured, and brought him to the hospital. [WITNESS ]’s mother [REDACTED] arrived at the hospital. [REDACTED] said [WITNESS ] and [VICTIM ] live with her at [SINGLE DIGIT BLOCK] Cherrywood Ln, Cartersville, Georgia 30120. I asked [REDACTED] if the fight occurred at [SINGLE DIGIT BLOCK] Cherrywood Ln and she said no.
I ed Bartow Dispatch to be patched through to on call investigator F. Aspenwall 15 to advise him of the incident. Investigator Aspenwall advised me to stay with [VICTIM ] until he could arrive and speak with him. Upon Investigator Aspenwall arriving at the hospital, he relieved me from the scene.
The scene was turned over to the Bartow County Sheriff’s Office Criminal Investigations Division. Photographs of [VICTIM ]’ injury was taken with my county issued Bodyworn Camera.
