An argument over turning a light switch on and off spurred an

attempted murder incident at a wedding reception in Newport Beach on

Saturday night, police officials said Monday.

Ramon Cuebas, 34, of Los Angeles was arrested Saturday night on

suspicion of stabbing two men after a fight at the reception at Temple

Bat Yahm in the 1000 block of Camelback Street.

The victims, whose names were not released, are in stable condition,

said Newport Beach Police Lt. John Klein.

Police said Cuebas reportedly stabbed a security guard in the hand and

a male guest in the upper body. Cuebas was a guest at the reception. He

is being held in Orange County Jail in lieu of a $250,000 bail.
