A female security staff member was stabbed twice around 1 p.m. Saturday at the LSU Law Center.The woman was stabbed by an unidentified man after she wouldn’t let him enter the Paul M. Hebert Law Center, said Sgt. Blake Tabor, LSU Police Department spokesman.The man asked to enter the Law Center around 11:30 a.m. and was not allowed in because of a private function being held there. The man argued with the victim before leaving. He returned at approximately 12:55 p.m. and again asked to enter. After another denial, a “verbal dispute and physical dispute” followed, which resulted in the man stabbing the security guard in the abdomen, according to an LSUPD news release. The woman was taken to the hospital with minor injuries and was in stable condition Sunday, Tabor said. Because of the woman’s “hysterical nature,” she was interviewed again several hours after the incident to verify her story and a description of the subject, Tabor said.The suspect fled the scene after the stabbing, and no arrest has been made. LSUPD is conducting an investigation with the East Baton Rouge Parish Sheriff’s Office and the Baton Rouge Police Department.—-Contact Ryan Buxton at [email protected]
