Seattle Police arrested a man in connection with a stabbing with a machete near the University of Washington campus Tuesday night.
According to a UW advisory, the attack happened shortly after 9 p.m. near 19th Avenue Northeast just north of Northeast 45th Street. There may have been an argument leading up to the stabbing.
The victim was treated at the scene before being taken to Harborview Medical Center.
