A stabbing suspect is still at large after an attack on UC Irvine‘s campus early Friday morning, according to UCI police.

The stabbing occurred at 3 a.m. Friday near student housing at 64000 Vista Del Campo Road, police said in a release.


The suspect is Krist Porayanee, a 22-year-old Cambodian man who is 5-feet 8 and 120 pounds, with black and brown tattoos on both arms, according to police.

The victim was a UCI student, school spokeswoman Cathy Lawhon said, declining to give his name. She described his injuries as “non-life threatening” and said he was in stable condition.


“He was in good enough shape to give information to the police about the suspect when they arrived on the scene,” she said.

The suspect is a South Pasadena resident who is not affiliated with UCI but did know the victim, Lawhon said.


“The information I have is that they had been at a party and there was an altercation between the two male subjects over a girl,” she said.

Police believe Porayanee may be in a 2013 four-door silver Audi with a California license plate of 7AUA604.

Anyone who sees the vehicle or Porayanee is asked to call 911 or UC Irvine police dispatch at (949) 824-5223.
