I followed up with EPD and will have more details tomorrow.

Here is what PIO Brittany Powell could tell me today.

"Seems like the victim claimed to know the suspects and there was possibly a dispute about owing money.  The victim had minor injuries (no stab wounds) and walked away from the hospital before being further interviewed by officers. "
