A Davie man was arrested early Monday, accused of slicing another’s throat and attempting to run them over with a vehicle.
Andrew Camp, 38, of Cooleemee, was charged with attempted first degree murder and assault with a deadly weapon with intent to kill. He was taken into custody without privilege of bond, pending a May 22 first-appearance hearing in Davie District Court.
Officers were dispatched to a stabbing call in the 2000 block of US 601 South, Mocksville, about 1:41 a.m. Monday, reported Davie Sheriff J.D. Hartman. When they arrived, they were told that camp had cut a victim with a blade and then attempted to run them over.
Camp abandoned his vehicle and fled on foot. The victim had non-life-threatening injuries, the sheriff said.
