Sierra Vista police arrested a man for allegedly stabbing his two roommates.

Police say 64-year-old Rick Pastika stabbed his 57-year-old roommate multiple times Saturday night. 

The men had a disagreement, and alcohol was a factor.

The victim was airlifted to Tucson for treatment and is now in stable condition.

Pastika was booked on a $500,000 bond into Pima Count Jail on attempted second degree murder, aggravated assault with a deadly weapon and misconduct with weapons as a prohibited possessor.
