Aberdeen woman stabbed by another as verbal argument turns violent
Yesterday, the Harford County Sheriff’s Office (HCSO) released word that their office arrested one woman, and that another woman was recovering from an early morning stabbing that went down in Aberdeen, Maryland. On January 3 at approximately 5:19 a.m., HCSO deputies responded to the 200 block of Mayberry Drive in Aberdeen for the report of a noise complaint.
Upon arrival, deputies located a female, identified as Arielle Young, 29, of Aberdeen, with superficial injuries to her hands. Young was treated by medics on the scene; and deputies began escorting her back to her residence.
At that time, a second female, identified as Akiera Blagmond, 34, of Aberdeen, approached the deputies and informed them she had been stabbed. Medics treated Blagmond at the scene, before transporting her to Johns Hopkins Bayview Medical Center for treatment of non-life-threatening injuries.
The investigation was assumed by detectives from the Harford County Sheriff’s Office Criminal Investigations Division. Investigators from the Forensic Services Unit responded to the area to collect and preserve physical evidence in support of the investigation.
The detectives’ initial investigation revealed that Young and Blagmon became involved in a verbal altercation that escalated into a physical altercation. At some point during the altercation, Young stabbed Blagmon with a knife.

The investigation remains active and ongoing. The sheriff’s office announced that no further details are being released at this time.
