Guy stabbed in town at lunchtime

Chochese

Was passing Revolution at around 2 or half 2 today and there was 2 fellas going at it outside Revolution in front of everyone. The older chap pulled out a knife and started reefing into the other... F**ked up stuff!

Anyone hear of what transpired? Couldn't stick around as I was rushing back to college...

OP, as the witness of an attempted murder, I hope you have done (or are going to do) the responsible thing and contacted the police to see if they want a statement?

Don't want to sound rude, but whatever the OP does is none of your business.

Thats true but one could say that he/she has a duty to society to do so...being a good citizen and all that

I would have assumed that he/she has already or is going to do such a thing

A friend of mine witnessed it and apparently there are more then enough statements. There were a lot of witnesses. Plus, the Guards have not asked for assistance from the public.
