HAVERHILL — Police say two people were stabbed late Friday night and another suffered numerous cuts in a fight that broke out during a house party.

No arrests have been made and police are continuing their investigation.

On Friday at 11:58 p.m., police responded to a disturbance in the area of 528 Hadley West Drive, an apartment complex off Lowell Avenue in the Westgate Plaza area of the city.
