GRAND RAPIDS, MI — A 37-year-old man was hospitalized in Grand Rapids on Sunday after suffering several stab wounds he claimed resulted from falling on a knife, police said.

According to medical dispatch traffic around 8:30 p.m. Sunday, the man suffered three stab wounds to his neck and back.

The placement of the wounds suggested to medical personnel they were not self-inflicted, according to dispatch reports.

Grand Rapids police Lt. Matt Ostapowicz said an officer was sent to Spectrum Health Butterworth Hospital to interview the man.

"He claimed he fell on a knife he was working with. But he’s also being uncooperative," Ostapowicz said. "We don’t necessarily believe his story right now."
