A 32-year-old man suffered life-threatening injuries after he was stabbed in the chest Monday afternoon in San Francisco’s Mission District during a fight with a 14-year-old boy, police said.

The man was on the 1900 block of Mission Street near 16th Street around 5:30 p.m when he got into a fight with the teenager, said Officer Albie Esparza, a San Francisco Police Department spokesman. That’s when, according to the victim’s statement to police, the teenager stabbed him.

The victim, whose name has not been released, was taken to a hospital, where he remained in the intensive care unit Tuesday morning.

Police said the victim knew the suspected stabber, who police were trying to track down. No arrests have been made.

Authorities are asking anyone with information to call the San Francisco Police Department anonymous tip line at (415) 575-4444 or to text a tip to TIP411 and begin the message with “SFPD.”
