Man stabbed a few houses down from me

Published by sbostedor on February 28th, 2008 - in Jackson

A 62 year old man from Jerome, Michigan named Daniel Harner was visiting his daughter a few houses down the street from me when an argument started between Daniel and his daughters ex-hubby, Troy Anthony Barlow (37 years old).

Daniel was stabbed in the neck once and in the torso multiple times. He was also slammed in the head with a metal pipe. Surprisingly, it appears that he’s going to live.

When the handcuffs were removed from Troy so that they could get prints, he struck the arresting officer. This guys obviously wants to go to prison for life.

The funny thing is that I was home when this happened and didn’t notice anything going on. So much for that neighborhood watch sign posted in my side yard. ;)

    The guy who got stabbed, stumbled over to a buddy of mines house across the street from where he was stabbed to get help. He pounded on the door, my friends wife answered to find a bloody man begging for help. She runs an in-home daycare and home schools their kids as well. When she answered she was holding a 3 year old, and her 11 year old daughter was at her side. It scared their daughter so much that she rounded up the remaining four small children hurried them upstairs and shut them and herself in her closet and refused to come out until the police arrived. My buddy was pretty distraught at hearing from his wife when she called to tell him what was going on. Scary stuff.
