An 18-year-old woman is on life support after she was stabbed in the head during an argument that escalated at a northwest Houston apartment complex Thursday morning, according to Houston police.<\/p>\n
The stabbing happened around 1 a.m. at an apartment complex in the 1700 block of Seaspray Court.<\/p>\n
Investigators said the victim and a 20-year-old woman had attended a pool party earlier in the day along with several friends. After returning to the apartment complex, the two women began arguing over a boy.<\/p>\n
According to police, the argument turned into a fistfight before the confrontation initially ended.<\/p>\n
Authorities said the 20-year-old suspect then went inside her downstairs apartment. However, the victim followed her into the apartment, where the fight resumed.<\/p>\n
During the second altercation, police said the victim was stabbed in the temple.<\/p>\n
After being injured, the woman ran out of the apartment and into the parking lot before collapsing. Neighbors came to her aid and called for help.<\/p>\n
Houston Fire Department paramedics transported the victim to a nearby hospital, where she remains in critical condition and has been placed on life support, police said.<\/p>\n
The 20-year-old suspect, who lives alone in the apartment where the stabbing occurred, is in custody and cooperating with investigators. <\/p>\n
As of Thursday morning, no charges had been announced.<\/p>\n
