PICO RIVERA – Deputies are looking for the man in a white hat who stabbed another man in the chest Thursday night and rode off on a horse.
Sheriff’s Lt. Brian Yanagi said the unidentified victim was currently listed in stable condition at Los Angles County USC Medical Center.
The stabbing was reported at 5:50 p.m. at the Pico Rivera Sports Arena, 11003 E. Rooks Road. Yanagi said people were there Thursday working their horses.
Acquaintances of the victim told deputies they didn’t see the stabbing.
They saw him talking to another man who later left on a horse, according to Yanagi. When they looked at their friend, they realized he’d been stabbed.
The suspect was described as a Latino, 5 feet 10 inches tall and about 170 pounds. He wore a white hat, white shirt and blue jeans.
