A man was arrested and charged with assault with a dangerous weapon on June 14 in Lafayette Square.
At approximately 2:17 p.m., a MPD officer discovered a man with deep lacerations to his left eye at the intersection of 16th Street and H Street, NW. A witness claimed the suspect harassed her and her group, wielding a sharp stick.
The victim allegedly confronted the suspect for his behavior and was later stabbed in the face.
The suspect fled on foot before Secret Service agents apprehended him on the 1500 block of H Street, NW.
His initial hearing at DC Superior Court was scheduled for June 15.
