Woodbridge police were called at 7:14 a.m. Sunday for a reported stabbing at the Avenel Flea Market, a popular local market held on Rahway Avenue.

He initially began screaming at the woman and her son from his apartment window, and the parties exchanged words, said police. Durham then came down from the apartment complex, assaulted the woman from behind and stabbed her in the neck with a knife, charge police. He returned to his apartment where he was located and arrested. Durham was charged with aggravated assault, criminal attempted murder, weapons offenses and hindering arrest.
