DALTON, Ga. – A woman has died after being stabbed at a home in Dalton on Thursday, police said.
Dalton Police say they were called to the home on Elaine Way after a report of a stabbing. As emergency medical technicians staged near the scene waiting for police to arrive, they saw a man bleeding outside the home.
The man, identified as 48-year-old David Dyer, allegedly fought with an EMT and was then placed under arrest by a responding officer.
Dyer was taken to the hospital with what police said appeared to be self-inflicted stab wounds to his wrists.
