SAN DIEGO >> Police say a Lyft driver was arrested on suspicion of stabbing a passenger during a dispute in San Diego.

Officer Robert Heims says the driver argued with three passengers after they were unable to give him a drop-off location early today.

The victim, a 27-year-old man, was hospitalized with non-life-threatening injuries.

City News Service reports the 33-year-old suspect was held in lieu of $30,000 bail.
