Police investigate stabbing

A local man received what Pleasanton police Lt. Craig Eicher described as a "non-life-threatening" stabbing around 11:30 p.m. Sunday.

The man told police he had bought cigarettes at Perry's Liquor in the 4300 block of Valley Avenue when he became involved in an altercation nearby. The man didn't realize he'd been stabbed until after he fled the scene and was near his home, according to a police report.

The victim and witnesses said there were two assailants. The first is described as a Hispanic man in his early 20s, 6 feet 3 inches tall, 250 pounds, with short brown hair and a goatee, wearing a red T-shirt and jeans; the second was described as a Hispanic man in his early 20s, between 5 feet 10 inches and 6 feet tall, about 180 pounds, clean shaven with short black hair, also wearing a red T-shirt and blue jeans.

Police are investigating the incident.
