Woman stabbed Saturday in Palatine domestic incident

A 39-year-old woman was stabbed in the abdomen Saturday morning in what authorities describe as a domestic incident in the courtyard of a Palatine condominium complex.

Police said the woman was stabbed by a 45-year-old man known to her just before 8 a.m. at the Windhaven Condominiums on Dundee Quarter Drive. The woman was treated at the scene and taken to Advocate Lutheran General Hospital in Park Ridge by Palatine Fire Department paramedics, authorities said.

Within an hour of the original 911 call, police found the suspect walking less than a mile away near the intersection of Rand Road and Winslowe Drive, where he was taken into custody without incident. Police said they are still investigating and will release additional information later.
