Three Men Stabbed Outside Trenton Bar

TRENTON, N.J. (AP) — Three men were stabbed outside a Trenton bar shortly after a disturbance broke out inside the business.

The incident occurred around 12:20 a.m. Monday, shortly after a bar patron hit a 29-year-old man over the head with a beer bottle. As bar staffers worked to clear the business, another patron allegedly attacked the three men with a butterfly knife before fleeing on foot.

The three victims — ages 20, 27 and 30 — are all expected to recover from their wounds.

It wasn't clear what sparked the stabbings. And authorities are trying to determine whether the patron or any of the three victims were involved in the disturbance inside the bar.
