INDIANAPOLIS -- One person was hospitalized Friday morning after a stabbing in downtown Indianapolis. 

The stabbing happened outside of Coaches Tavern, across the street from Scotty's Brewhouse. 

The victim was taken to the hospital, but they will be OK. 

A dispatcher with the Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department said a suspect was in custody, but IMPD's Twitter account said that wasn't accurate.

No further information is available on the stabbing. 

In April, Indianapolis saw a rash of downtown Indianapolis violence, leading to increased patrols from police.
