Overview
- Somerset police responding to a medical call entered a room at the Riverview Inn & Suites on Wilbur Avenue Saturday night and found three people with serious apparent stab wounds.
- Officers secured the hotel room while paramedics treated the wounded and transported all three victims to area trauma hospitals; officials have not released their conditions.
- Police Chief William Tedford and the Somerset Police Department say the incident was confined to a single room and that there is no known threat to the public.
- Authorities have opened an active investigation but have not identified suspects or released victims’ identities, and they are expected to process the scene and question witnesses as the probe continues.
- Residents should await official updates from police on victims’ conditions and any arrests, since those developments will shape whether charges are filed or additional safety measures are needed.
