A 20 year old male was standing in the 100-block area of E. San Luis St. when he noticed a vehicle with several occupants drive by and yell profanities at him. A few moments later, the victim noticed a Hispanic male walking towards him. The subject charged him and began swinging. The victim did not realize the suspect had a knife until he received several stab wounds to his upper torso. The suspect ran off and fled in the vehicle that had passed by earlier. It was described as a dark 4 door compact vehicle, occupied by both males and females. The victim was taken to an area hospital and treated for his non-life threatening wounds. He described the suspect as a bald Hispanic male with a goatee, 6 ft. tall with a stocky build and in his early 20s.
