Man stabbed in South Fresno. No arrests reported, witnesses not cooperating with police

A man was stabbed Monday afternoon in a South Fresno neighborhood.

Few details were immediately available.

Police were called just before 4 p.m. to a neighborhood in the area of East Lorena and South Holly avenues. The victim, described only as a man in his early 50s, was stabbed once in the abdomen area. Lt. Larry Bowlan described the injury as a “slice-type” wound.

Police said the man was unable to provide any information. He was rushed to a hospital in what police said was critical but stable condition. Bowlan said the man was out of surgery and in stable condition as of 7 p.m.

Bowlan said the man knocked on a door in the 2100 block of South Holly Avenue and asked for help. His car was parked at the home, but investigators were not sure exactly where the stabbing occurred.

Officers said witnesses were not cooperating with police.

No arrests have been made and the circumstances surrounding the attack were not immediately clear.

Anyone with information is asked to contact the Fresno Police Department.
