Stabbing suspect caught at same hospital where victim is being treated

"Of all the gin joints in all the towns in all the world, she walks into mine."

It's a famous quote from the film "Casablanca" and for 25-year-old Curtis Wayne Kendrick, the quote became reality on Wednesday.

Tulsa police say they were questioning a stabbing victim at an area hospital when they found out the suspect was nearby.  Kendrick was also being treated at the hospital for an injury to his pinky and witnesses say he stabbed the victim multiple times.

Police say Kendrick approached the victim and said he had a gun.  Instead, he pulled a knife and attacked the victim.

While trying to defend himself, the man was deeply cut multiple times by the knife.

He was then transported to the hospital.  His injuries weren't expected to be life-threatening.

No word on how Kendricks made it to the hospital.
