Alejandro Mondragon, 31, was arrested early Wednesday afternoon and booked into the Lake County Jail for attempted murder, with bail set at $50,000, according to jail records.
Clearlake Police Chief Allan McClain reported that police officers responded to Saint Helena Hospital Clearlake on a report of two stabbing victims in the emergency room at about 3 a.m. Wednesday.
The victims, 21-year-old Wesley Auten and his older brother Samuel Auten, 26, received stab wounds to the back and are currently hospitalized with non-life threatening injuries, McClain said.
Clearlake Police detectives and the Crime Suppression Unit were called in to investigate this crime, according to McClain.
Investigators determined that the stabbing took place at a residence in the 3000 block of Oak Avenue in Clearlake after a physical fight between the victims and Mondragon, he said.
McClain told Lake County News that, as far as police have been able to determine, the incident wasn't gang-related.
He said his agency has had previous contacts with Mondragon and the Autens.
McClain said the investigation is ongoing. Anyone with information is asked to call Det. Sgt. Tom Clements at 707-994-8251.
