The suspect allegedly stabbed the other man, injuring his upper body. The victim was taken to hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.
Police say the suspect initially fled the scene, but he was arrested and remains in custody.
Investigators plan to meet with both men to determine what exactly happened. Police officers remain at the scene.
