Should I go to the police after leaving the scene from a fight?
I got into a fight at work and during the fight I cut the person numerous times with a blade when he came at me. He was taken to the hospital and the cops came but I ran from the scene. Should I go to the police and render an account of what happened?

You should contact an attorney immediately. It sounds like you are in serious trouble. Do not say or do anything until after you have retained an attorney. (Period)!!!!! If you cannot afford one, the court will appoint one for you. The only person you should talk to is your attorney.
Hope this helps
