A man who showed up at Baystate Medical Center with a stab wound to the arm early Saturday morning isn't cooperating with police, whose investigations can go belly-up without help from victims and witnesses.

SPRINGFIELD -- City police said they aren't getting much help from a 22-year-old Springfield man who showed up at Baystate Medical Center with a stab wound to the arm around 3:16 a.m. Saturday.

The victim, who wasn't identified by police, would only say that he was "stabbed in the arm" during some sort of incident in the "downtown" area, according to initial police reports.

Those reports indicated the man, a resident of 1529 Dwight St., was "very drunk and very uncooperative."

The man's injuries aren't too serious, according to authorities, whose investigation likely will come to a standstill without further help from the victim.

Springfield Police Lt. John K. Slepchuk said there isn't much police can do in such cases.
