MILLERSVILLE, Pa. —
Police in Lancaster County have charged a man with stabbing his brother in the head during an argument in their Manor Township home over the weekend.
Dayvon Washington, 26, is charged with aggravated assault, simple assault and reckless endangerment in connection to the alleged incident, which occurred at 6 p.m. Sunday on the first block of Kendes Road.
The victim was taken to a local hospital for treatment of a laceration near his left eye, according to Manor Township Police.
The investigation determined Washington and his brother were arguing over a previous incident involving other relatives, police said. When Washington was caught in a lie, he grabbed a knife and stabbed his brother near his left eye.
Washington, who left the home before police arrived, was taken into custody on the nearby campus of Millersville University and is being held in Lancaster County Prison in lieu of $35,000 bail.
A preliminary hearing is scheduled for February 29, according to court documents.
