PHOENIX — A man was hospitalized Tuesday morning after he was stabbed following an argument in west Phoenix, authorities said.

Officers responded to a call near 59th Avenue and McDowell Road around 10 a.m. regarding an unknown trouble, the Phoenix Police Department said.

The call suggested a man was nearby and appeared to be injured, police said.

When police arrived, they found a man with at least one stab wound. He was taken to a hospital in extremely critical condition.
