A Jefferson City juvenile is a suspect in a multiple stabbing incident that occurred over the holiday weekend in the Lake of the Ozarks area, according to the Camden County Sheriff's Department.

Camden County Sheriff Dwight Franklin said Monday night that deputies from his office were called to Lake Regional Hospital during the early morning hours last Friday.

Hospital personnel called police when several victims arrived in the emergency room for treatment of stab wounds.

Camden County sheriff investigators determined one individual was stabbed during an altercation had occurred at a residence on Three Seasons Road, off State Route KK.

The subjects then left the residence and went to an apartment complex on State Route A, but apparently were followed by the suspect, a female.

Three subjects from the original altercation were stabbed at the apartment, as well as another female not involved in the original incident.

The victims reportedly include three males and two females, ranging in age from 17 to 27. Officials said none of their injuries were life threatening.

Sheriff's investigators are working with Jefferson City juvenile authorities in the ongoing investigation.
