Here is a statement from the Rutherford County Sheriff's Office concerning the incident: Two victims remain in critical condition while a third victim is in stable condition after being injured in a fight about 1 a.m. Sunday at a party on Campbell Road, a Rutherford County Sheriff’s detective said.
One man suffered a stab wound to the neck, a second man suffered a stab wound to the stomach and a third man suffered a head injury, said Detective Tony Grissom, who is investigating.
Two of the men flew by LifeFlight and a second traveled by Rutherford County Emergency Medical Services ambulance to Vanderbilt University Medical Center in Nashville. Names of the victims are not yet being released.
Grissom charged suspect Jeremy Duke, 32, of Readyville with aggravated assault. A second suspect has been located. Additional charges are expected.
The injuries occurred during a bonfire party off Weakley Lane attended by about 40 to 50 people. People at the party took the injured men to StoneCrest Medical Center in Smyrna. Sheriff’s patrol deputies gathered information from witnesses at the hospital and at the bonfire.
Detectives spent much of the morning interviewing witnesses and collecting evidence at the crime scene.
Duke is being held on $5,000 bond at Rutherford County Adult Detention Center. A hearing on his charge is pending in General Sessions Court.
