SEATTLE — Two people were hospitalized after a stabbing in Seattle’s First Hill neighborhood early Wednesday morning.
Police say the two victims, a 35-year-old man and a 38-year-old man, were taken to Harborview Medical Center with non-life-threatening injuries.
Seattle Police Department (SPD) officers were first called to reports of a stabbing in the Freeway Park underpass, near University Street and Hubbell Place, at around 6:30 a.m.
Police believe the stabbing may be part of a robbery, but they are unsure at this time if the victims know each other or if the incident was targeted.
Witnesses told police three men in black clothing robbed the victims during the assault. According to SPD, K9 officers were tracking suspects, but were unable to find them.
No other victims were found, and SPD Robbery Unit detectives are working to determine what led to the stabbings.
Anyone with information is asked to call the Seattle Police Department Violent Crimes Tip Line at (206) 223 5000.
