A Phoenix police officer was stabbed by a suspect at a gas station during an early morning trespassing call on Sunday, authorities said.
Employees wanted the suspect out of the store and the officer was escorting the man outside when the suspect pulled a knife and stabbed the officer, police said.
Gas station employees then fought with the suspect and subdued him until other officers arrived, KTAR reports.
The officer who was stabbed was taken to a hospital with serious injuries that weren’t considered life-threatening and remains there.
