A 22-year-old man, a 21-year-old man, and a 24-year-old woman were in Dolores Park on Tuesday at 6:30 p.m. when they were approached by a group of six men in their early 20s. The group of men asked the three if they would like to buy marijuana and the victims refused, after which the group of men asked them if they were in a gang. When the victims said they were not, the group of men attacked them.
The 21-year-old male victim was stabbed by one of the suspects in the torso and forearm, while another victim had his wallet stolen, though it was later recovered at the scene along with a knife. The injured victim was transported to the hospital for non-life-threatening injuries, and the police have made no arrests.
