JEFFERSON CITY - Police are investigating two separate incidents, each of which resulted in one person going to a hospital.

The first call came in Sunday afternoon around 3:20 p.m. Police went to the 100 block of East Miller Street, where they determined a 20-year-old person was shot in the chest during a fight; that person was hospitalized with serious injuries.

Witnesses identified the suspect and suspect vehicle. Officers went to the suspect's home and took him into custody. He was later booked into jail on suspicion of assault, armed criminal action and unlawful use of a weapon. Police have not released his name at this time.

Less than a half-hour later, police learned about a stabbing in the 300 block of Cherry Street. When officers arrived, they found a man with two stab wounds who had lost a lot of blood. The victim identified the attacker as his estranged wife.
