On 02-04-2022 at 1am, officers responded to a call of a male in the road with red marks on his back in the 3000 block of SW Avalon Way, but no one was found during that call. At 1:28am, the victim contacted AMR via telephone directly to report being stabbed at the earlier reported location.

Officers located this male victim at a nearby 7/11. The victim shared no specific details that could assist in the investigation, location of scene or suspect description.

The male had several small puncture wounds on his back. Seattle Fire responded and evaluated the victim.

The injuries were not deemed life-threatening. Out of an abundance of caution, the male was transported to Harborview Medical Center for additional evaluation. Officers later discovered that the victim had provided false identification.
