A 30-year-old Bristol Township man was arrested Tuesday morning after police responded to a stabbing.
Officers were called to the 3200 block of Llanberis Avenue for reports of a stabbing. Upon arrival, officers learned the stabbing victim had run off toward the Franklin D. Roosevelt Middle School, police said.

The woman was found in the field outside the school with multiple stab wounds to her neck and wrists, according to court papers. Police said the woman was transported to Lower Bucks Hospital for treatment.
Christopher Lee was taken into custody and provided a written statement about the stabbing to police.
Lee said to police that he was laying down with the woman and she was leaning on him, which he didn’t like because he had a sore back. The woman poked the 30-year-old in the back and a fight ensued. Eventually, the woman cut herself with a small knife and scissors, Lee said, according to court papers.

However, police believe otherwise and charged Lee with aggravated assault, simple assault, reckless endangerment, possession of an instrument of crime and harassment. He was arraigned and sent to county jail on 10 percent of $50,000 bail.
