Clerk Stabbed During 7-Eleven Robbery in Anaheim

A clerk was stabbed Thursday during the robbery of a 7-Eleven store in Anaheim.

The stabbing was reported at 10:47 p.m. at 1685 W. Katella Avenue, according to Anaheim police Sgt. Wayne Alonso.

Two men on a beer run took an 18-pack and stabbed the clerk in the lower back once with a sharp object, Alonso said. 

The clerk, a man in his late 20s, was taken to the hospital and his injuries were not deemed life-threatening, Alonso said. He suffered a wound that was about an inch wide. 

The suspects were estimated to be in their early 20s and one of them was wearing black pants, a beige shirt and a black cap, Alonso said.

The weapon was not found at the scene, he added.
