Police arrested two men in connection with the stabbing of a security staffer at a nightclub near Boston Common early this morning, according to a Boston Police spokeswoman.

Police responded to Liquor Store at 1:35 a.m., according to police spokeswoman Rachel McGuire, who said the stabbing occurred during “an altercation inside the bar.”

The 29-year-old victim was taken to Massachusetts General Hospital and is in stable condition.

McGuire said the men are charged with assault and battery by means of a dangerous weapon. They are scheduled to be arraigned Monday at Boston Municipal Court. Police are not releasing the identities of the two men.
