A 58-year-old man and his 24-year-old daughter were taken to Hackensack University Medical Center after he'd been stabbed and she'd been slashed Sunday night at a multi-family home on Carlton Avenue near the Wallington border, they said.

Their injuries weren't considered life-threatening.

Also injured, responders said, was the accused assailant -- a 25-year-old family member who they said was bashed in the head with a frying pan.

He was released after being treated and then booked into the Bergen County Jail on two counts each of criminal attempt and illegal weapons possession.

The Bergen County Sheriff's Bureau of Criminal Identification collected evidence. The county prosecutor's office was notified.

Identities are being withheld out of consideration for all who were involved in what was a domestic incident.
