Police investigate stabbing in Hawthorne
Police are investigating the stabbing of a Hawthorne man who was attacked while sitting in his car.
The victim was stabbed in the 4600 block of 129th Street when he arrived home at 1:30 a.m. Monday, Hawthorne police Lt. Gary Tomatani said.
A man wearing a ski mask and dark clothing cut the 46-year-old man twice in the upper body.
Paramedics treated him at the scene. He was taken to a hospital.
Detectives are looking into possible motives for the attack because it did not appear to be a robbery attempt, Tomatani said.
The victim was cooperating with police.
The suspect was described a male wearing a ski mask over his head and face, and dark clothing.
Anyone with information about the crime was asked to contact detectives at 310-349-2820.
