A suspect has been charged in the stabbing of a man in west Birmingham.

Nakia Wayne Douglas, 25, of Birmingham, is charged with attempted murder, police announced Thursday night.

At about 7:45 p.m. Tuesday, West Precinct officers were dispatched to the 1000 Block of Circle Street in the Dolomite on a report of a person stabbed.

When officers arrived, they were informed that the victim had been transported to the Hueytown Fire Department by private vehicle, said Officer De’Rell Freeman.

Hueytown alerted Birmingham police that the victim was at their location. He was then taken to UAB Hospital with life-threatening injuries.

Freeman said officers were able to gather information about a possible suspect from witnesses on the scene.

A short time later, a Birmingham felony assault detective spotted Douglas walking Dolomite. He was taken into custody without incident.

Douglas is being held in the Jefferson County Jail with bond set at $60,000.

A motive in the stabbing has not been disclosed.
