“There was some drinking involved,” Sclabassi said.

The 48-year-old younger brother was arrested at the scene and remains in police custody.

Police are working to obtain a warrant request so they can charge the younger brother, Sclabassi said.

The victim underwent surgery Friday and is in serious condition.
