Two men were stabbed early Sunday during a fight at a trailer park in south Thurston County, according to the Thurston County Sheriff’s Office.

Just after midnight, several law enforcement agencies, including the Sheriff’s Office, were dispatched to the fight in the 6400 block of 201st Avenue in Grand Mound.

About 20 people were involved in the brawl, Sheriff’s Lt. Mike Brooks said Sunday. Two men were stabbed in the abdomen, he said, and were taken to Providence St. Peter Hospital in Olympia with injuries that were not considered life-threatening.

He said it appears the victims and suspects know each other.

No one is in custody, Brooks added, partly because witnesses were not cooperative with law enforcement. Detectives plan to investigate the incident this week, he said.

The Sheriff’s Office received assistance from the Chehalis Tribal and Tenino police. A crew with West Thurston Fire also was dispatched to the incident.
