SYRACUSE - Two men were stabbed with a samurai-style sword during an argument in the basement of a Syracuse home, and one went to the hospital with the blade sticking through him, police said.
Luke Jenkins, 34, had two wounds to his abdomen.
But Edward Cannon, 39, was pierced from the lower abdomen through the upper back, according to police.
Both men were in fair condition later at University Hospital, a nursing supervisor said. Jeremy Bartle, 22, was charged with second-degree attempted murder and fourth-degree weapon possession in the stabbings about 4 a.m. Saturday at his address, police spokesman Lt. Joe Cecile said. There was no word on what sparked the bloody sword play, or where the blade came from.
