Albuquerque native injured in machete attack in downtown Los Angeles
NEW MEXICO (KRQE) – An Albuquerque native was one of the victims of a violent machete attack in downtown Los Angeles that left another man dead. Although the 35-year-old chef survived this attack, he has a long road to recovery ahead.

But the walk home quickly turned violent. As Levitt went to grab his keys to unlock the doorhe heard footsteps running towards him, 'As soon as I went to look up to see the reflection in our lobby door, that's when I had noticed the reflection of a man, and that the running noise had come from him…then that's when the attack started.' recalled Kyle Levitt. Levitt later learned, he was the second person to be attacked that night. A few blocks away, police say the same suspect attacked a 60-year-old man with the same machete and killed him. The attacker hit Levitt from behind, slashing his neck, ear, head, and body. Levitt called for the man to stop and turned around, the man then knocking him to the ground slashing his wrist with the machete then running away, 'That's when I noticed half of my hand had been cut through. So I, both of my tendons leading to my thumb were severed, my Artery was severed in my wrist, the cut went down to the joint of my wrist,' emphasized Levitt. The attack left Levitt with a skull fracture and staples on his head and neck. But worst of all, it left him without the full functionality of both of his hands. As a chef, he's left unable to work, saying it could take months to regain mobility. Levitt was born in raised in New Mexico, but has lived in LA for the last 11 years. He hopes to be back in the kitchen soon, where he hopes to achieve his goal of bringing New Mexican cuisine to Los Angeles. A Go Fund Me page has been set up to help him pay for medical bills and unforeseen expenses as he recovers. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.
