When police arrived, a male victim was found lying on the sidewalk outside the club with a group of people surrounding him. Bouncers from The Kells were also holding down the defendant, 21-year-old Fausta Grandados, of Malden, nearby.
Officers applied pressure to the victim’s chest to help quell the bleeding and asked the victim who stabbed him he replied, ‘That mother [expletive deleted] stabbed me,’ and pointed at Fausta.
A second wound was found on the victim’s shoulder, and he was taken to Brigham and Women’s Hospital where he was listed as suffering non-life threatening injuries.

Eyewitnesses told police that both the victim and Fausta threw punches before the victim was stabbed.
MORE TROUBLE AT THE KELLS
Police arrested another man at The Kells Bar on Nov. 21 for urinating in a taxi cab in front of bar patrons and a police officer.
According to the police report, a Kells doorman refused to allow 26-year-old Jason McNamara of North Attleboro into the bar because he appeared to have already consumed too much alcohol.

After screaming obscenities at the officer, McNamara stepped into a cab and urinated in it in front of a large group of patrons watching through the Kells’ street-facing picture windows.
