"This store is over 20 years, and I worked here six years. The community, we know each other. We know each other. The community is very good."
"After being the center of many high-profile crimes in the past several years, Chinatown has since seen crime drop drastically."
Surveillance video captured a stabbing incident on a Chinatown street corner around 1 p.m. Thursday. A store manager heard screams and witnessed community members attempting to help the victim stop bleeding. Emergency responders arrived quickly, and the victim was transported to the hospital. The suspect was arrested after leaving the area. Despite the incident generating significant attention in the neighborhood, residents and community members characterize it as isolated. Chinatown has experienced a drastic crime reduction in recent years and maintains a tight-knit community. The District Attorney's office is working to hold the suspect accountable and emphasizes the need for adequate police presence.
