THE GAZETTE

A stabbing in Lowe's home improvement store Wednesday was between two men who were at odds over a woman, witnesses say.

The stabbing happened about 11:15 a.m. between two men when one stabbed the other inside the store at 2945 New Center Point in northeast Colorado Springs. The victim, whose identity was not released, was stabbed in the abdomen and taken to the hospital, said Sgt. Dennis Juhl, with Colorado Springs Police. The victim did not have life-threatening injuries.

John Ganatta was at the store Wednesday with his neighbor, whom he did not identify. Ganatta said that his neighbor had a continuing dispute with his wife's ex-husband. When the two men ran into each other by accident at the store, they started acting aggressively toward each other.

"He said ‘back off or I'll stab you,' Ganatta said. "So he did."
