A woman was taken to the hospital early Tuesday morning following a stabbing at the city's tiny-home encampment.

Officers were dispatched to the 3200 block of Dairy Drive shortly before 4 a.m.

A woman walked up to Madison Fire Station 14 to report the stabbing.

The suspect appears to have used a screwdriver in the attack. A 29-year-old woman was taken to the hospital. Her injuries are not life-threatening.

The victim was visiting a friend and does not live at the encampment.

The city of Madison secured the Dairy Drive campground last year for people in the community who are experiencing homelessness and not using the shelter system.
