TULSA, Okla. — Tulsa police are investigating a stabbing at Rooster's Sports Bar near 71st and Memorial that left a 34-year-old man critically injured.

Police said they arrested two women in connection with the stabbing.

TPD released the names of the two women.

24-year-old Alexandra Roth was arrested for assault with a dangerous weapon and 31-year-old Sumar Williams was arrested for accessory after the fact.

Police did not identify the man stabbed at the bar.

Police said they received reports that a woman stabbed a man at the bar around 1 a.m. on August 22.

Police said they are not sure what led to the stabbing or the relationship between the victim and the attacker.

Witnesses told 2 News the stabbing happened on the patio and was very gruesome.

The witness said bar staff tried to help the man who was severely injured, and during that time, they claim the woman tried to stab the man again.

The bystander said the violent attack caused people at the bar to get physically sick after what they saw.

When police arrived, witnesses described the suspects and their car.

Using the police helicopter and ground units, police said they were able to find the suspects driving around Highway 169 and the BA Expressway. When police stopped the car, the suspects were arrested.

At this point, police are still working to learn what led up to the stabbing.
