KNIFE VIOLENCE CONTINUES:
Santa Barbara police reported a 17-year-old gang member was
stabbed in the torso near the MTD bus depot on Chapala Street
shortly after noon on Tuesday; he was reportedly in stable
condition. Police were alerted when a deputy prosecutor saw the
youth walk past wearing a bloody shirt. Two hours later, police
responded to a sizable gang fight near Wentworth and De la Guerra
streets on the Westside, the same location where another young male
had his face kicked in two weeks earlier.
