Authorities arrested a man in connection to a stabbing in Dorchester on Saturday morning.
Boston Police say they arrested 30-year-old Kelvin Ortiz, of Roxbury, on charges of assault and battery.
Authorities say they responded to a report of a person stabbed in the area of Columbia Road and Stoughton Street and found a man suffering from a stab wound.
The victim was able to point at a fleeing suspect near the intersection of Columbia Road and Dudley Street before he was taken to a local hospital with non-life threatening injuries, police said.
Officers chased after the suspect, who was on a bicycle, and they found him on Gene Street, where he got off the bike and jumped a fence.
Police were flagged down on Humphreys Street and told that the suspect had broken into their basement. Officers saw the suspect attempt to leave the basement, and he was apprehended on Wendover Street.
He is now being charged with assault and battery with a dangerous weapon, breaking and entering in the daytime for felony, and trespassing, according to authorities.
Ortiz is expected to be arraigned in Dorchester District Court. It wasn't immediately clear if he had obtained an attorney.
