Myrtle Beach Police are investigating an early morning stabbing Monday at a hotel that left two people with injuries.

This is the second stabbing in a week at a Myrtle Beach business.

Officers responded at 8:33 a.m. to the Quality Inn & Suites, 1004 S. Ocean Blvd., in reference to a stabbing, according to a Myrtle Beach Police Facebook post.

When officers arrived, they found two people with injuries. One was transported to the hospital while the other was treated on scene, the post said.

One person has been detained in the stabbing, the post said.

There will be an increased law enforcement presence in the area as the investigation continues, the post said.

Last week, police charged Gary Everett Arnold Jr., 37, of Coventry, Rhode Island, in a stabbing that occurred Wednesday at a city laundromat.

Officers responded at 10:10 p.m. to a business in the 1100 block of 3rd Ave. South in reference to a reported stabbing, according to a Myrtle Beach Police Facebook post. It appears that it occurred at the Lane Mega Laundry, 1109 3rd Ave. S, according to a text from Myrtle Beach Police spokesperson Randolph Angotti.
