At 4 a.m. Monday, the Redmond Police Department (RPD) responded to a report of a stabbing in a residential neighborhood on Education Hill.
The 66-year-old man was reportedly stabbed multiple times in the neck by his wife. He was able to exit the house and contact a neighbor who notified police. The man was transported to Harborview Medical Center in Seattle. He was in and out of surgery by 10:25 a.m. Monday and is currently in the intensive care unit and in stable condition, according to RPD.
Police surrounded the residence and made attempts to contact his wife, a 54-year-old woman, who was still believed to be in the house. She did not respond. Redmond officers breached the residence and located her in a second floor bedroom. She was in and out of consciousness with multiple knife wounds.
The woman was also transported to Harborview. As of Wednesday afternoon, she was still at the hospital in stable condition and in custody with charges pending, according to RPD.
There was no one else in the residence.
There is a history of domestic violence between the two.
Redmond detectives are continuing to investigate.
