A Bowman man was treated at the hospital Wednesday night after being stabbed twice in the back at a Charleston Highway nightclub, according to an OCSO incident report.

The 28-year-old Bowman man was treated and released.

Deputies were sent to the 40/40 Club around 9:40 p.m. after getting a call about a possible stabbing. When deputies arrived, they found a man being held down by two others who said they witnessed the incident.

The witnesses said a 28-year-old Bowman man was on his way to the Regional Medical Center to be treated for stab wounds.

The two men claimed the man they were holding stabbed the victim in the back twice, the report said.

Deputies said the suspect appeared to either be drunk or under the influence of narcotics. He was detained until a call to the hospital confirmed a man had been taken in for treatment.

The suspect was arrested and taken to the hospital after complaining of having trouble swallowing and pain from several bruises to the head.

While physicians were working with him, they discovered he had at least nine bags of what looked like marijuana under his clothes, according to the report.

The 25-year-old Bowman man was changed with assault and battery of a high and aggravated nature and possession with intent to distribute marijuana, according to OCSO spokesman Thomas Brown.
