Three Lexington brothers were arrested following a "gang-related" stabbing Sunday night in the southwest part of Lexington. Lexington Police Sgt. Tracy Wolf says officers and rescue were summoned to Price's Trailer Court around 7:00pm. They found a 17-year-old boy with several cuts to his arm. He was transported to Tri County Hospital where he was treated and later released. An investigation led to the arrest of 21-year-old Javier Carranza-Beltran, 20-year-old Ricardo Carranza-Beltran and a 15-year-old boy.

Javier has been charged with Aiding and Abetting a 2nd Degree Assault. Ricardo has been charged with 2nd Degree Assault and Use of a Weapon to Commit a Felony. Both were being held on $100,000 cash bonds. The 15-year-old boy was being held at a juvenile detention center in Lincoln. He faces juvenile adjudication for 2nd Degree Assault and Use of a Weapon to Commit a Felony. Javier and Ricardo also face charges in separate incidents involving the same victim in June.
