LAPD says the incident happened at about 7 p.m. in the 14700 block of Parthenia Street. They say the victim was standing inside of the video store when another man approached him and challenged him to a fight.
During the fight, the victim's ankle was fractured and he couldn't stand up, according to police. That's when the video shows the other man leaving, coming back with a knife in hand, and stab the victim who laid on the ground.
Los Angeles Fire Department paramedics took the victim to the hospital in critical condition, LAPD said.
