A man has been arrested after allegedly stabbing a Fairfax County police officer.
Officers responded to the 12800 block of Fair Lakes Pkwy at around 2:47 p.m. for a “suspicious person” after 911 received “several calls” from someone who was rambling, according to scanner traffic.
The officers reported at 2:56 p.m. that they had one man detained, but a rescue unit was requested after “the subject pulled a knife” on one officer.
“He’s been cut,” an officer said on the scanner.
The officer was transported to a hospital with injuries not considered life-threatening, the Fairfax County Police Department said on social media shortly before 4 p.m.
“The suspect, an adult male, was arrested on scene,” the FCPD said. “Detectives from our Major Crimes Bureau are on scene investigating.”
