Suspect Arrested for Attempted Murder in Fairfield Stabbing

A 24-year-old man was booked early Saturday morning on
charges of attempted murder and burglary after breaking into his
ex-girlfriend’s Fairfield apartment and stabbing someone inside, police said.

Police credited a witness who called 9-1-1 early Saturday
morning with helping lead officers to where Jacob Travis was.

Police said Travis broke into his ex-girlfriend’s Gregory
Street apartment at about 11:15 p.m. Friday and got into a fight with one of several
people inside. Police said Travis stabbed that person several times; the victim
was taken to an area hospital for treatment, and that victim is expected to
make a full recovery.

A Fairfield resident called police about 1 a.m. Saturday
saying Travis was near Pennsylvania Street and Tabor Avenue. Travis was soon
located and arrested as he tried to flee and hide from officers, police said.

Police credited that caller, who provided police dispatcher
with updates as top Travis’s location, with making the arrest possible.

Travis was booked into the Solano County Jail in Fairfield
on suspicion of attempted murder and burglary.
