2 suspects arrested in Carson City carnival stabbings

CARSON CITY — Carson City sheriff's deputies have arrested two suspects in connection with three stabbings during a fight at a carnival that injured three people, two of them critically.

Sheriff Ken Furlong said 24-year-old Zachary Foore and 22-year-old Kenneth Frank were taken into custody without incident Saturday night, the Nevada Appeal reported.

Foore was booked on suspicion of three counts of battery with a deadly weapon and Frank one count of accessory to battery with a deadly weapon, he said.

Authorities have not released the names of the three victims who were stabbed Friday night at the carnival in Mills Park in Carson City.

All three were taken to a hospital in Reno, where two initially were reported in critical condition. All three were stable by Saturday, authorities said.

The carnival was shut down Friday night after the stabbings but Furlong said the carnival would continue this weekend with an increased law enforcement presence.
