Man threatened with attempted murder for stabbing outside Minneapolis nightclub

A man now faces an attempted murder charge for a stabbing last weekend outside a Minneapolis nightclub.

Traquan Diaveonmartez Jackson, 28, is charged with attempted second-degree murder and second-degree assault in connection with the May 25 incident.

It happened around 1:20 a.m. Saturday near the intersection of Second Avenue and Fourth Street North.

Minneapolis police said they were called to the scene on a report of a fight.

Court documents state the victim “had a knife fully embedded in his skull” with just the handle visible. He was taken to hospital in critical condition.

Witnesses pointed officers toward Jackson, who had been filmed in an altercation with the victim earlier in the night, according to charging documents, and he was arrested.

It's unclear what exactly caused the fight.
