Mid-haircut stabbing results in arrest, awesome mug shot

A New Haven, Conn., man is in the hospital and due in court later this month after police said he stabbed someone while getting his hair cut in Stamford.

David Davis, 21 of New Haven, was sitting inside an apartment on Henry Street in Stamford's south end just before 12:30 p.m., getting a haircut, when a man he had been arguing with approached him, police said.

Davis thought the other person was going to harm him, so he picked up a pair of scissors and slashed the other in the back, police said.

Patrol and canine officers later found Davis in an apartment and took him into custody.


Davis had a cut on the right side of his upper back and is being treated at a local hospital. He is expected to recover.

Davis was charged with first-degree assault and is being held on $5,000 bond.

He is due in court on March 22.

He was also wanted on a second-degree failure to appear warrant for a previous arrest with a court-set bond of $750.
