Seattle police arrested a man after a stabbing aboard a tour boat Friday evening.

Harbor officers were dispatched at 9:30 p.m. to a stabbing on a tour boat carrying approximately 100 passengers on Lake Washington.

Harbor units met the boat on the lake and transported the seriously injured passenger to shore.

The tour boat returned to a University of Washington facility where patrol, gang and harbor units all boarded the boat. The officers interviewed passengers and were able to identify the suspect before he exited the boat. Officers found the knife and booked the suspect into King County Jail for investigation of assault.
