Orange County deputies went to the Marden Meadows apartments just after 12:30 p.m. for a well-being check. When they arrived, they found the woman with a stab wound.
“We heard her screaming and we didn’t know what was going on,” said one resident, who asked to remain anonymous.
The victim was taken to a hospital and her injuries are not life threatening, deputies said.
The person who attacked the woman, who deputies believe is known to the victim, is still at large.
Deputies have not said what led to the attack.
Edwin Torres, who has lived at the complex for eight years, said his kids play in the area where the woman was found.
“Of course there be arguments and stuff. But a stabbing, it’s time for us to go,” Torres said.
