Wichita police arrested a 37-year-old man late Sunday after 2 women reported being attacked in a motel room.  Officers were called to the Auto Inn motel at 1230 North Broadway.

Lieutenant Doug Nolte said a 45-year-old woman received a deep cut on her hand when the man slashed her with a piece of broken glass from a picture frame.  The man then grabbed a butcher knife and tried to slash a 30-year-old woman, but she was not hurt.  When the man left, the women called 911 and led officers to the man's motel room.  He was arrested for aggravated assault.
