FAIRFAX COUNTY, Va. — Two men were stabbed and a third was stabbed and shot in Fairfax County early Saturday morning, according to Fairfax County Police. 

All three men were taken to the hospital and are recovering following the violence, which was reported around 12:40 a.m. on Saturday, police said.

One victim was initially thought to have life-threatening injuries, but his condition was upgraded to stable, according to a tweet from Fairfax County Police.

Officers responded to the 6000 block of Knollwood Drive in the Culmore community, near Falls Church in Fairfax County. The scene has since cleared, but detectives are still investigating. There is no word yet on what may have led up to the stabbings, and no arrests have been made.
