Two Alexandria men were hospitalized after a stabbing early Sunday morning outside the Waffle House at 17137 Dumfries Road in Dumfries.
One victim was taken to the hospital with chest and abdominal wounds and is in critical but stable condition, said Prince William County police spokesperson Erika Hernandez. The other had stab wounds in his back and was hospitalized with non-life threatening injuries.
James Thomas Harris, 6 St. Roberts Drive, Stafford, and Allan Jerod Harris, 3513 Belfry Lane, Dale City, were arrested by Prince William County police and charged with aggravated malicious wounding.
James Thomas is being held without bond at the Prince William-Manassas regional jail. Allan Jerod was released on $5,000 bond.
A court date has been set for Oct. 16.
The police received a call at approximately 4:20 a.m. concerning a group of men arguing. The incident escalated and two men were stabbed.
The suspects are accused of taking a steak knife from the restaurant and stabbing the victims. When the officers arrived at the Waffle House, the suspects had fled the scene.
One of the accused was found a few miles away. A resident called the police to report a suspicious man standing at his door. The suspicious man was detained and later identified as James Harris.
Allan Jerod was taken into custody at his residence.
