The Northwest D.C. Restaurant and Saloon where five people were stabbed early Saturday morning.
All five victims were taken to hospital with knife wounds, a police spokesman said Saturday. Their identities have not been released.
Police said the stabbing happened inside the bar. Photos posted on Twitter Saturday show a blood-splattered sidewalk.
Calls to McFadden's requesting comment were not returned.
Comment: There have been multiple incidences of stabbings this year. Oddly, there was a rash of such incidents back in 2010, and hopefully this is not an indication of more to come.
