Hotel Stabbing Near Airport Hospitalizes Victim, Suspect: Police

LINTHICUM HEIGHTS, MD — A man was stabbed this week at a hotel near Baltimore/Washington International Thurgood Marshall Airport, police said.

Officers said the victim and the suspect were both hospitalized and the suspect, identified as 24-year-old Jahmai Tai Devon of Linthicum Heights, was arrested soon after.

Authorities said they were called Tuesday around 4:20 p.m. to Sonesta Suites BWI, located at 1160 Winterson Road.
