A man drove himself to the hospital July 8 after he sustained a stab wound to the chest when two men reportedly attempted to rob him at about 1 a.m. at a Kent store parking lot in the 25600 block of 104th Avenue Southeast.<\/p>\n
The man was treated and released at Valley Medical Center in Renton for a single stab wound to the chest. The cut was about 2 inches wide and one-quarter inch deep, according to the Kent Police report.<\/p>\n
The man told police he had parked his vehicle at a store parking lot when two men approached the driver\u2019s side window and asked him for a cigarette. When the driver, who was alone in the car, rolled down the window, the two men told him to get out.<\/p>\n
The driver pushed away one man, but the second man pulled him out of the car. The driver managed to get back in his car when one of the men pulled out about a 12-inch long knife and tried to grab the keys out of the ignition.<\/p>\n
The man with the knife failed to get the keys, but stabbed the driver. The driver drove away, saw blood coming from his chest, and headed to the hospital. He did not know if the men left the parking lot on foot or in a vehicle.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
