A Robbery and stabbing is under investigation in Catawba County.

The Catawba County Sheriff’s Office says the incident happened Wednesday at a location off D and K Glass Road is southwest Catawba County. A victim was stabbed and robbed. The victim was transported by EMS to Frye Regional Medical Center in Hickory. The victim told police that she met a man and woman at a gaming business on Springs Road, where the victim won a sum of money. The victim did not know the two people. 

The victim then traveled with the unidentified male and female to an area off of Greedy Highway and D and K Glass Road, where they robbed the victim at knifepoint, and also stabbed the victim causing non-life threatening injuries. 

Due to the nature of the alleged incident, the victim’s name is being withheld at this time.
