SAN DIEGO (CNS) - A person believed to be a boy stabbed a 28-year-old man twice in the parking lot of an Otay Mesa West recreation center, the San Diego Police Department said Monday.

The stabbing happened at 11:15 p.m. Sunday in the 3000 block of Coronado Avenue near the basketball courts at the Montgomery Waller Recreation Center, said SDPD Officer John Buttle.
