2/3/07 - An argument between two men escalates, ending with one man stabbed and the other shot. Now police are trying to figure out what lead up to the bloody fight. It happened early Friday evening at a home in the 1700 block of South Sedgwick.

Police believe the two men were arguing over something when the fight escalated to violence. Apparently, one of men stabbed the other. Police say the person who had been stabbed then shot the attacker. Police believe the shooting was self defense.

Police say the man was shot multiple times but he managed jumped in the other man's truck and took off. Officers had just arrived to find the stabbing victim when the shooting victim returned to the scene. The injured men were taken to the hospital. They're both listed in critical condition.

Police interviewed neighbors to see if any of them heard or saw anything that would explain what led to this fight. They say it's too early to tell if alcohol may have been involved.
