A 64-year-old man was stabbed once in the neck Thursday evening by a man dressed as a woman, police said.

The victim was at Gateway Inn, located at 819 W. North Temple, in a room where he lives, said Salt Lake City police Lt. Scott White.

Several neighbors called police when they heard screaming coming from his room just after 5 p.m., White said. The 64-year-old man was taken to University Hospital in fair condition.

They found the other man, age 49, hiding in a shed close by, near 150 North and 800 West, and witnesses confirmed it was the same person from the room, White said. It was unclear why the man was wearing women's clothing, or why the two were in the room together, though there did not seem to be signs of forced entry, White said.

The 49-year-old was arrested on suspicion of aggravated assault.
