Flint’s 41-year-old female roommate told a trooper that she’d returned home and was approached by him.
She said an argument started and Flint assaulted her and stabbed her with a sharp object several times. The victim was taken to MedStar St. Mary’s Hospital.
Flint was found in an upstairs bedroom. He was charged with several offenses including first- and second-degree attempted murder. It’s unclear if Flint has a lawyer.
