Homeless man stabbed over beer

Posted by Geeky Swedes on December 23rd, 2008

Late last night, police say a homeless man was stabbed in the back after a fight over a beer at 46th and Leary. Officers say they later arrested two suspects inside a vehicle that resembled an ambulance in the 1100 block of Ballard Ave. Conditions inside were filthy, police say. You may remember, Ballard’s last murder occurred in March in a vehicle on 48th and Leary — an area popular with homeless people camping in their cars. In this case, the homeless victim is expected to survive. (Thanks, Izaak for the link!)
