LAS VEGAS (KSNV MyNews3.com) -- Several men are being arrested by Metro this afternoon after a morning burglary attempt resulted in two men being stabbed.

"It looks like it was a burglary attempt and at least four men who have been identified are going to be arrested," Metro Lt. Les Lane said this afternoon. "They all entered the apartment with the intent to commit a burglary."

The incident happened about 9:30 a.m. at the Oak Tree Apartments on Lake Mead Boulevard near Lamb in the northeast part of the valley.

Lane said one man of the intruders was stabbed in the torso and was taken to UMC Trauma while the man who lived in the apartment suffered a minor arm wound.

"We are hearing that the man taken to UMC has injuries that are not life-threatening," Lane said. "He is being arrested along with several others."

Investigators were continuing their investigation this afternoon, Lane said.

Oh and by the way idiots and the bigger idiots that reported this crap story. My brother had the charges dropped because witnesses came forward and said all he did was tried to help the woman. The same woman who lied for her woman beating husband.and guess what geniuses the charges for that so called thug that u morons think deserved a bullet and the cops rushed to lie on and the moron journalist who wrote this story without real facts, we effin dropped. Geez what do you suppose that means. Lets see. The woman beater lied, the woman lied, the cops lied and the so called media really needs to learn what real journalism is. So while my brother fights for his life for doing the right thing all these people jumped to conclusions because he's a Hispanic male. It wasn't a white boy that did the right thing it was a so called gangbanger according to all of you. That 18 year old boy sitting in the hospital fighting to live while his family sits by his side. Nobody is perfect but while so many people turn their heads or walk away when someone needs help. He choose to help. What does that make you racist fools. Get a education and good god get a brain b4 u judge. So easy to say thug or Mexican or gangster till that so called thug helps you when your life's in danger. Then your greatful. I hope he sues the jerks that lied, the cops, and the pathetic media that reported this lie instead of doing their job. So have a nice day you brain less fools.

First off most you people are idiots. It wasn't 4 guys it was two and the poor man that had a stupid arm injury was beating the crap out of his wife so my brother bieng the good person he is tried helping her and what does he get. Metro lying as usual because that's all thier good at. Setting people up killing anybody with a complexion and twisting things to fit thier agenda. Trust me I know this for a fact. And yea idiots if that man had a gun he would of killed his wife first so yea to bad huh some dumb broadgets her ass handed to her and someone tries doing the right thing n he almost looses his life. You people are ignorant. Get the facts instead of bieng media sheep n believing anything u read. Maybe when it's your mother or sister or daughter I'm sure you will pray for someone to help them but hey by your reasoning they should shoot the broads right. Get a brain and stop believing the TV like morons and actually find out the truth.

FBI and DEA use no-knock warrants to enter suspect's homes while they are away and steal items. They mostly steal watches, jewelry and less frequently expensive prescription drugs by returning a second time and swapping them with fakes.

"We are hearing that the man taken to UMC has injuries that are not life-threatening," Bummer, tell the victim to buy a gun and save himself and others a lot of trouble. Now tax payers will be stuck with the criminals hospital bills and short jail stay. The criminal and his buddies will be back out on the street in a few months looking for their next take! This is where a high capacity mag would have come in handy. 4 thugs times 2 bullets in the chest and one in the head. 3 x 4 = 12
