On top of the dude who was stabbed whilst minding his own business at Market and 7th Street Wednesday morning, an 18-year-old kid was stabbed near Balboa Park BART Wednesday night during a failed robbery attempt. Will criminals please quit it with the knives!?

Two suspects, in their mid-20s, approached the victim and tussled with him to try to steal his backpack. The kid refused to let go of it, so they stabbed him.

He's being treated for a non-life-threatening wound. Police are seeking tips about the suspects, who fled in a red, two-door older-model Ford or Nissan. If you know anything, call the anonymous tip line at (415) 575-4444 or send a tip by text to TIP411.
