MOSES LAKE - Two men were treated for apparent stab wounds Monday night near Moses Lake.

About 7:45 p.m. Monday, an employee at Samaritan Hospital in Moses Lake notified Grant County deputies of two men who came into the emergency department after being stabbed, according to reports.

The two victims, both males in their 20s, refused to cooperate with deputies and did not give any information about the incident, according to Kyle Foreman, of the sheriff's office. He added the sheriff's office does not know if the two injuries are related. The victims arrived at the hospital within minutes of one another, Foreman said.

Foreman said the two men were stabbed somewhere in the Larson Housing Area. The two victims suffered non-life threatening injuries, and were treated and released from the hospital.

The sheriff's office is not continuing its investigation because the victims did not provide further information.
