Two Arrested After Man Is Stabbed in Terre Haute

By Chad E. DelventhalUpdated November 7, 20263 min read

What happened

A man suffered an apparent knife wound in Terre Haute around 4 p.m. on Wednesday, November 4, 2026, after a confrontation with another man, according to WTHI-TV 10[1], citing the Terre Haute Police Department. WTHI reported that the injury appeared to be non-life-threatening. The man was treated at the scene and taken to a local hospital.

The published accounts do not agree on the street. WTHI's article body places the incident in the 2200 block of Second Avenue, while the WTHI web address and the Tribune-Star report[2] refer to Third Avenue. An earlier WTHI report[3] also identified Third Avenue. The Terre Haute Fire Department responded, according to WTHI.

Arrests and the ongoing investigation

According to WTHI, Vigo County Sheriff's Office K9 Kora located the suspect at a nearby residence. Logan J. Noble, 29, of Terre Haute, was arrested on preliminary charges of battery with a deadly weapon and battery resulting in serious bodily injury.

Destiny M. Baugh, 23, of Terre Haute, was arrested on preliminary allegations of assisting a criminal and obstruction, along with an outstanding criminal conversion warrant, WTHI reported. These are preliminary allegations only. Both people are presumed innocent unless proven guilty in court, and the investigation is ongoing.

What an injured person should do next

If you are hurt by another person's actions, get medical care first and keep records of your treatment, bills, and missed work. Ask the investigating police agency how to obtain its report. The firm's guide to obtaining an Indiana police report explains the general records process.

A criminal case and a civil injury claim are separate. The outcome of one does not automatically decide the other. Evidence can also disappear, so it helps to preserve photographs, witness information, messages, medical records, and other material connected to the incident. You can review a broader guide to organizing evidence for an Indiana injury claim, while keeping in mind that every incident requires its own factual review.

Why location and deadlines matter

This incident happened in Terre Haute, in Vigo County, and the Terre Haute Police Department investigated. A civil case is usually filed in the county where the injury happened or where a defendant lives.

Indiana divides fault among those involved under Ind. Code 34-51-2-6. A person whose own fault is greater than 50 percent cannot recover, while a recovery is reduced by that person's percentage of fault when it is 50 percent or less. More information is available in this explanation of Indiana's comparative-fault rule.

Most Indiana personal injury claims must be filed within two years under Ind. Code 34-11-2-4. That period usually runs from the date of the injury, not from the date of a criminal charge or trial. This general overview of Indiana injury claim deadlines explains why the applicable date should be checked promptly.

Working with Delventhal Law

Common questions

How fees work, deadlines that matter, and what to expect when you call.

  1. How much does it cost to hire Delventhal Law Office?

    There is no up-front cost. Personal-injury cases are handled on a contingency-fee basis: you pay nothing unless we recover compensation for you. The initial consultation is free and carries no obligation. Call (260) 484-6655 to talk through your situation.

  2. How long do I have to file a personal injury claim in Indiana?

    Indiana generally gives you two years from the date of injury to file a personal-injury lawsuit (Indiana Code § 34-11-2-4). Shorter deadlines can apply when a government entity is involved or in some workers' compensation matters. The sooner you call, the more options you have.

  3. What if I'm partly at fault for the accident?

    Indiana follows a modified comparative-fault rule (Indiana Code § 34-51-2-6). You can still recover compensation as long as you are not more than 50% at fault. Your recovery is reduced by your percentage of fault. Even if you think you share blame, call us — the insurance company's first assignment of fault is often wrong.

  4. Do I have to come into the office to meet with you?

    No. We meet clients by phone, video call, at their home, or at the hospital. The Delventhal Law Office is in downtown Fort Wayne, but most of our clients live across Indiana and we come to you when that's easier.

  5. How quickly should I call after an accident?

    As soon as you can. Evidence disappears fast — skid marks fade, surveillance video is overwritten, witnesses move on. Insurance adjusters also start calling within days. Talking to us before you give a recorded statement protects your claim.

  6. What kinds of cases does Delventhal Law handle?

    We represent injured plaintiffs in car, truck, motorcycle, bicycle, and pedestrian accidents; workers' compensation and on-the-job injuries; wrongful death; slip-and-fall and premises liability; birth injuries; burn injuries; and other personal-injury claims across Indiana.
