MOSES LAKE - Two men who reported being assaulted in separate Grant County incidents both refused to provide details to police.

The first incident was reported Saturday at about 3:50 a.m. by a 23-year-old Moses Lake man who walked to an American Medical Response station from Arnold Drive Northeast, where he said he was assaulted with a knife, according to Grant County Sheriff's Chief Deputy Ken Jones.

The victim had a stab wound to his lower left back but "became belligerent" and would not give deputies any details regarding who stabbed him or the events leading up to the assault, Jones said.

Then, on Monday at about 4 a.m., Grant County Sheriff's dispatchers received a call from an employee of Swedish Hospital in Issaquah, who reported a man arrived with non-life threatening knife wounds saying he was assaulted in the Quincy area about an hour before.

Jones said few details were known about the victim, who told hospital staff only that he was "jumped" by an unknown subject in an unspecified area of Quincy while on his way to "the horse races."

Neither man suffered life threatening injuries, Jones said.
