On Saturtday morning, about 2:26 a.m., Santa Monica Police responded to reports of a stabbing in the 1700 block of Ocean Front Walk.
The only information out right now is that two people were taken to the hospital with stab wounds. Police said they remained in stable condition as of Saturday afternoon. No information on whether any suspects were detained or identified in this stabbing.
The victims were reported to be brother and sister. And reports say they were asttacked by to drunk men who were seen on scooters.
The sister spoke to the news service
"She said it was around 1 a.m. on Saturday when her group went down to the beach, just wanting to dip their toes in the water. Before they got to the sand, the sister said they noticed two men from a distance, seeming to be drinking and riding their scooters on the boardwalk.
The sister said she found it suspicious, but they carried on. They later again noticed the same men who seemed to be getting closer to her group.
The two men eventually approached her and her brother and began harassing them, she said. The sister said that her brother was trying to protect her and his girlfriend and her other friends during the confrontation.
The men pulled out pocket knives and began threatening them, the woman said. She and others in the group managed to record the suspects.
The sister begged the two men to leave her and her brother alone, but the suspects didn't listen, and instead attacked and lunged at both of them with their knives.
The group was able to escape to safety, and the sister said she and her brother ran toward the parking lot to get to their car.
The woman said she was stabbed four times -- in her head, her back and under her armpit area. Her brother was stabbed five times -- with hits to his stomach and back."
