OKLAHOMA CITY – Oklahoma City police say a patient with a knife injured two nurses and a security guard at a hospital on the city's northwest side.

The hospital says the bitten nurse is hospitalized in stable condition and the other two were treated and released.
The man, identified as 58-year-old Keith Bain of Valliant, locked himself in the room before being arrested by police for assault and battery with a deadly weapon and destruction of property.
