A man was hospitalized with non-life-threatening injuries after being stabbed Tuesday night in front of the Salt Lake City Justice Courts building, according to the Salt Lake City Police Department.
Details of the stabbing incident
Sgt. Kevin Blue with the Salt Lake City Police Department reported the incident occurred around 11:16 p.m. at 333 S. 200 East. A bystander discovered the victim and provided aid before calling 911, as the man did not have a cellphone to call for help, Blue said.
Police search for unidentified suspect
Police used drones and canines in an attempt to locate the suspect but were unable to find them. The suspect is described as a white adult male, possibly in his late 40s, with short dark hair and wearing a flannel shirt.
