A 23-year-old inmate is charged with attempted murder in connection with a stabbing that occurred Thursday in the Etowah County Detention Center, according to Sheriff Jonathon Horton.

Investigator Will Farley said Austin Kane Abernathy of Southside was served with a warrant while in jail.

The inmate he allegedly stabbed was treated and released at a local hospital for his injuries.
