Details of a stabbing incident that took place in Saugus remain under investigation as of Wednesday afternoon, according to a Santa Clarita Valley Sheriff’s Station official.
Deputies responded to the 21400 block of Angela Yvonne Avenue in Saugus to a report of an assault with a deadly weapon involving a knife, said Sgt. Michael Markman with the SCV Sheriff’s Station. Markman added there was no additional information available on the matter during initial reports.
In a followup phone call with The Signal, Shirley Miller, public information officer for the station, stated that preliminary information indicated the victim was identified as a worker who was stabbed in the hand by the suspect.
