A 57-year-old man was left in life-threatening condition on Sunday after nine men swarmed him and assaulted him with a “knife and other blunt objects” near 17th and Mission streets at around 6:13 a.m, police say.

The suspects, all of unknown age, fled after the assault. The man was transported to the hospital, and no arrests have been made.

  1. Interesting … both at 17th and Mission, just one block from the Mission police station. I’ve noticed there are a lot of attacks on that corner. What is going on there? And do the police never leave the station??
