Man stabbed multiple times, then runs for help at Fresno Popeyes, police say
A man is in the hospital Saturday afternoon after he was stabbed multiple times.
Fresno police Lt. David Madrigal said officers were dispatched at 1:15 p.m. to the Popeyes, located at the 3000 block N. Blackstone.
Officers arrived and found a victim inside the Popeyes, who was stabbed multiple times. He was taken to a local hospital and his condition is stable, Madrigal said.
Officers learned the stabbing actually took place across the street at an apartment building. The victim then ran across the street and went inside the Popeyes for help, Madrigal said.
'Apparently, this assault is possibly related to an incident that took place earlier today,' Madrigal said.
He said officers and detectives are investigating and trying to determine all the facts.
The stabbing stems from a female, Madrigal said. But none of the involved parties were dating.
Detectives were canvassing for surveillance video and witnesses are cooperating.
Anyone with information is asked to call police at 559-621-7000.
